Fitch Solutions forecasts the Colombian peso will appreciate from COP4,810.2/USD at end-2022 to COP4,350/USD by end-2023, averaging COP4,500/USD. The firm expects the peso to weaken somewhat in the second half of 2023 on higher investor risk aversion, lower oil prices and a narrower interest rate differential with the US.
A stronger peso lowers the local-currency cost of imported feed inputs for Colombia, while weaker oil prices reduce energy-linked costs. The forecast is a currency outlook with limited direct effect on global grain or meal prices.
