  • Banco de la República (the Central Bank of Colombia, BanRep) informs that in October 2023 it made outright sales of TES B in the market for COP 1,763.8 billion (value at market prices). These sales were made in response to the difference between the projections of supply and demand of the monetary base, as well as to help in keeping the Overnight Benchmark Banking Indicator (IBR by its acronym in Spanish) aligned with the monetary policy rate determined by the Board of Directors of the Central Bank.

    At the end of October 2023, the outstanding balance of TES held by BanRep was COP 44,424.1 billion (value at market prices).

    BanRep’s TES B portfolio (expressed in nominal terms) is composed of peso-denominated TES (COP 41,894.7 billion) and UVR-denominated TES (UVR 27.4 billion).

    In November 2023, none of the TES B held by BanRep expires.
