Colombia Bank Maintains Rate, Plans Liquidity Moves
24.10.2009
Colombia’s central bank kept its benchmark interest rate unchanged at a record low and said it will inject liquidity into markets by buying dollars and bonds.
The seven-member board, led by bank chief Jose Dario Uribe, held the interbank rate at 4 percent after a surprise cut last month, matching the median estimate of 28
economists surveyed by Bloomberg. The bank will spend as much as 3 trillion pesos ($1.56 billion) to buy U.S. dollars and government peso bonds.
The daily amount of dollar purchases wasn’t set.
