In its latest monthly update, Colombia's Banco de la República reported accumulated profits of $2.55 trillion through March 2026—a 43% drop from $4.43 trillion in March 2025. This continues a downward trend following February's 8.49% decline to $2.67 trillion (part of our ongoing Banco de la República Profits Reports series). Assets, equity, and reserves also fell.

Banco de la República's financial report for March 2026 shows accumulated profits of $2.55 trillion, down sharply from $4.43 trillion in the same month of 2025 and building on February 2026's $2.67 trillion (an 8.49% YoY drop detailed in prior coverage).

Total assets decreased to $321.8 trillion from $339.7 trillion in March 2025. Equity dropped 30% to $81.27 trillion from $116.4 trillion, with liabilities at $240.59 trillion.

International reserves (foreign currency and gold) stood at $260 trillion, an 8.7% decline from $285 trillion a year earlier. These results reflect international market volatility and ongoing monetary policy adjustments, contrasting with the bank's $13.9 trillion full-year profits in 2025.
