# Colombian peso set to be a regional underperformer | Capital Economics

> Capital Economics expects the Colombian peso to fall to 4,600 per dollar by end-2026 from about 4,039 today. It cites a fragile fiscal position that could worsen before next year's election and a likely widening of the current account deficit. That would make the peso Latin America's worst-performing major currency.

## Why it matters

A weaker peso raises the local cost of imported feed ingredients and tends to push up the cost of dollar-priced inputs for Colombian buyers. The forecast is a currency call with little direct effect on global feed prices.
