Economical Influences and the Colombian Peso

If you are considering converting AUD to COP, it’s good to get a snapshot on how the economy may influence the Colombian peso.

Colombia's economy depends heavily on its energy and mining exports, meaning it can be vulnerable to commodity price fluctuations.1

A large producer of coal, oil, coffee and flowers; Colombia’s economy slowed significantly in 2017 due to a mixture of declining oil prices and damage to oil pipeline infrastructure.1

Increasing external debt and weakened growth have factored in the slow expansion rate of Colombia’s economy in recent years.1

In mid-2018, the Colombian peso fell 0.95% due to external factors.2
