Colombia is a Field Desk market — on the ground, first-hand, eleven reports deep. The rest are Market Briefs: desk research from primary sources, dated and cited, without pretending we’ve stood in the notary’s office. Same eight-block structure on every page so you can actually compare two of them.
A 12% policy rate, the lowest investor-visa threshold we cover, and a fiscal position that has been deteriorating for two years. Reported from Medellín.

Which investment actually buys a visa, at what threshold, and which one just buys a headache.
Gold and silver as a hedge against the currency volatility that makes these markets interesting.
