The Banco de la República is Colombia’s central bank. It publishes the country’s official macroeconomic and financial statistics: the representative market exchange rate (TRM), the monetary policy rate, the IBR, DTF and deposit rates, lending rates by credit type (consumer, mortgage, commercial, microcredit), credit and monetary aggregates, the consumer price index, unemployment, GDP, the balance of payments, remittances and regional activity. Some series it produces itself; others it republishes from DANE, the Superintendencia Financiera or the Ministry of Finance, and each says which. About 850 series, each with its full history: consumer prices from 1954, the TRM from 1991, the policy rate from 1998, lending rates from 2002. Each series also says when it was last updated and when the next update is due. Search the catalog by name, topic or frequency, then read a series’ observations by its code, over any date range.
The whole source, organized and ready to query: every endpoint on this page answers in milliseconds. Every response carries as_of: how current the data is. How datasets work.

​
Search the series

POST /co/banrep/series-search/v1 Dataset One search over every series the Banco de la República publishes, by name, topic or frequency.
Returns as_of (how current the data is), the applied filters, total and total_is_exact, page, per_page, total_pages, count and results[], best match first (latest observation first without a query). Every series carries id (its code, which series_code takes), name, description, category, subcategory and topic, frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual), unit and unit_symbol, source (who produces the data, e.g. Banco de la República or DANE), produced_by_banrep, geography, seasonal_adjustment, base_period, prices, decimals, definition, methodology_url, first_date and last_date (the first and latest observation), last_load_date (when the Banco de la República last updated it) and next_load_date (when it plans to next; null for a discontinued series). Some codes worth knowing: 1 TRM, 59 monetary policy rate, 15126 consumer lending rate (monthly), 15000 consumer price index, 15312 national unemployment rate, 15154 real quarterly GDP.

​
One series

POST /co/banrep/series/v1 Dataset The observations of one series by its code, over the whole history or a date range.
Returns as_of, found, series_code, from_date, to_date, series, count and observations[] (date and value, oldest first). The date of a monthly, quarterly or annual value is the last day of its period. Daily series carry every calendar day, weekends and holidays included, with the value in force that day, and can run a few days ahead when a value is set in advance. Every series carries id (its code, which series_code takes), name, description, category, subcategory and topic, frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual), unit and unit_symbol, source (who produces the data, e.g. Banco de la República or DANE), produced_by_banrep, geography, seasonal_adjustment, base_period, prices, decimals, definition, methodology_url, first_date and last_date (the first and latest observation), last_load_date (when the Banco de la República last updated it) and next_load_date (when it plans to next; null for a discontinued series).
A code the Banco de la República publishes no series under returns found: false with HTTP 200, not an error.
