What the numbers say
In 2025, Colombia's broad money (current LCU) rose 11.9% on 2024 (from 713.3 trillion to 798.26 trillion).

This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 48.1% in 1980 and the biggest yearly fall was 19.2% in 2018. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about 44.51 trillion a year. A straight line explains 85% of the movement over 10 observed years.

What this measures
Broad money is the sum of all liquid financial instruments held by money-holding sectors that are widely accepted in an economy as a medium of exchange, plus those that can be converted into a medium of exchange at short notice at, or close to, their full nominal value. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
