Based on a private report prepared by our International Area for our Investment Fund clients we share some highlights about the Economic Overview for 2019 \u2013 Latin America.<\/u><\/p>\n

After several years of lackluster economic growth in Latin America, and with global growth hitting a cyclical bottom in 2016, economic prospects have been steadily improving since then. Latin America GDP growth is expected to be +1.9pts for 2018 (while projected growth at the beginning of the year was at +2.5pts). Analysts foresee at this point a GDP growth for 2019 of +2.6pts, though doubts remains as if next year economic growth will roll out as forecasted.<\/p>\n

Among the risks to Latin America region economic recovery is the rise of protectionist policies, the prospect of stoking trade wars and the political noise from a heavy electoral cycle and corruption scandals.<\/p>\n

Mexico, in the wake of the new president landslide victory, economic sentiment has been riding high, while NAFTA deal calmed investors momentarily.<\/p>\n

Central America is reasonably stable as Costa Rica demand continues to increase with new business and leisure development.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In South America, tough reforms and fiscal consolidation in an election year will weigh in Argentina outlook in 2019, which economy is now officially in recession. In Brazil, a market-friendly outcome to October\u2019s election remains critical to ensuring a sustainable recovery. In Colombia, economic recovery is taking longer than expected, with new government focusing in fiscal, investments and security fronts.<\/p>\n<\/div>
