Recommendation

As the United States increasingly turns inward, Latin America is turning more and more outward. Securing a trade deal with the European Union and reviving the Trans Pacific Partnership – now without America’s involvement – could advance the region’s standing on the world economic stage. This timely briefing from the Economist Intelligence Unit examines Latin American nations’ concerted efforts to strengthen trade ties by embracing regional integration and furthering global outreach. getAbstract recommends this cogent white paper to executives and trade experts for its constructive overview of a promising agenda.

Take-Aways

  • The Trump administration is questioning existing US trade agreements, including NAFTA with Mexico and free trade accords with Latin American countries.
  • In response, the Latin American region is refocusing its efforts on economic growth through trade diversification.
  • Nations that form Mercosur and the Pacific Alliance are pursuing greater regional integration while also seeking alliances beyond the continent.
