Details
Driven by a higher global demand for commodities, FDI in Latin America has rebounded by 56% in 2021 from the pandemic slump, according to UNCTAD. Investors who were quick to capture the opportunities provided by the tech boom during the crisis are now looking at other sectors’ long-term prospects boosted by a growing middle class, a very young population and high digital adoption rates. The proximity to the U.S. and low labour costs also open significant nearshoring avenues.
