After taxes: what a U.S. holder keeps

  • Colombian withholding: 20% on dividends paid to non-residents, deducted before the money reaches your account.
  • U.S. taxes: the dividend is taxable in the U.S.; you may be able to claim a foreign tax credit for the Colombian tax withheld. Our Colombia tax guide for investors and expats covers the details.
  • In an IRA: U.S. tax is deferred, but the Colombian withholding generally cannot be recovered.

Why CIB is up 48% this year

  • High Colombian rates have kept bank margins wide.
  • The stronger peso lifts the dollar value of the bank’s earnings.
  • Capital returned to shareholders: higher ordinary dividends, the Banistmo-related extraordinary payout and a buyback program of up to COP 1.35 trillion approved for 2026.

Risks to weigh

  • Rate cuts would eventually compress margins.
  • Credit quality can deteriorate if Colombia’s economy slows.
  • Currency: a weaker peso reduces both the ADR price and the dollar value of each dividend.
  • Extraordinary dividends are one-offs; do not annualize them.
