"It is not a minor figure: thanks to these agreements, Bancolombia is positioned as the largest payer of remittances in Colombia. In 2022 alone, of the USD 9,429 million that arrived in the country, the entity paid USD 5,692. This new agreement with TerraPay will multiply these flows, especially with an ally capable of innovating with its solutions and infrastructure," says Cristina Arrast?a, Vice President of Business at Bancolombia. However, she adds, "Beyond the growth in the way of receiving money, the greatest impact will be on people, especially those Colombians who have a family member abroad, from whom they receive resources for their sustenance in Colombia. Colombians themselves in other countries will also benefit due to the number of channels they will have available to move money to the country." It is expected that this new alliance between Bancolombia and TerraPay will maximize the entry of money into the country from the United States, England, Spain and other countries in Europe. Also from various nations in Asia and Africa. Paula Andrea Valle, Director - South America, TerraPay said, "The agreement between the two companies is extremely important.
