Although Colombia's Gross Domestic Product grew at an average annual rate of 4.66% between 1960 and 1965, the increase in production per capita was lower than in previous years, since Colombia had the fastest population growth in the 20th century.

The international reserves of the Banco de la República were also negative in 1966, which meant that Colombia's capacity to import goods and services was the lowest since 1941, if one calculates the number of months whose imports could be satisfied with the existing reserves.

The beginning of the Lleras Restrepo administration gave way, however, to a break in the trajectory of the Colombian economy during the period of the National Front, marked by the normalization of the relationship of national economic agents with the exterior and by the rationalization of the State's finances.

In the first months of the presidential term, the strictest import control system of the post-war period was put into effect. Simultaneously, operations in the free foreign exchange market were suspended and exchange control was established.

These decisions provoked a confrontation, in November 1966, between the new government and its international creditors, headed by the International Monetary Fund, which did not agree with the type of economic policy measures of the new administration. A few months later, on March 22, 1967, Decree-Law 444 was enacted, which restructured the entire foreign exchange and foreign trade regime and gave the country nearly 25 years of stability in foreign exchange policy.

The Conservative government, suffering from reduced customs revenues, responded by issuing unbacked paper currency, causing the value of the peso to drop precipitously.

At this moment, various groups, worried about the violence that ravaged the country and the scandalous social conditions in which many Colombians lived, directed their criticisms toward the Conservative and Liberal parties. These same concerns were present in the Catholic camp and motivated a series of initiatives seeking to offer a "Christian" solution to serious problems of this kind. Of the variety of strategies to which these efforts gave rise, Christian Democracy was one of the options to emerge from the bosom of Catholicism.

But the participation of Catholics in political life in Colombia was not a new issue. In general terms, Catholics had been represented by the Conservative Party, with which there had been an old and close friendship at least since the middle of the 19th century, when the Church and its faithful joined conservatism to confront the anti-clerical project of the liberals.
