Objective 

The outstanding macroeconomic stability that the Colombian economy has led in the last century is due to a large extent of actions taken by the Banco de la República (Colombian Central Bank). Certainly, prudential management, to a certain degree of orthodox character of monetary policy, has facilitated control of the main economic aggregates in the different phases of the economic cycle. Under Banco de la República’s oversight, Colombia has a monetary policy model through which it tries to control the growth of prices, using the policy interest rate as the main instrument. The Central Bank actions are not reduced exclusively to the control of said interest rate. In recent decades, the following have been highlighted: economic analysis, management of international reserves, cultural activities and, in general, the recognition that many sectors give to the institution as an entity that enjoys legitimacy and recognition.
