In 2013, Colgate's weighted average interest rate on its short-term borrowings was:

2.2%.

Explanation:

On page 62 of Colgate Palmolive's 10-K annual report, covering the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013, it was noted that "the weighted-average interest rate for short-term borrowings amounting to $13 in 2013 and $54 in 2012 listed in Notes and loans payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2013, and 2012 was 2.2% and 1.0%, respectively."

The weighted average interest rate is calculated by considering the varying interest rates on short-term borrowings combined with their corresponding weights. These weights assist in calculating the average interest rate based on their proportionate sizes relative to the overall interest expense.
