Recommendation
From 2004 to 2011, Latin America experienced uniformly robust growth, save for one year during the Great Recession. The more recent past, however, has been less auspicious, with the region’s economic performance diverging into three tiers. Economist Ernesto Talvi highlights the “one region, three Latin Americas” phenomenon in this concise, user-friendly overview of the continent’s prospects. Though the report sometimes skimps on detail and can be repetitive, it succinctly lays out what Latin American countries must do to ensure their economic futures. getAbstract recommends this astute analysis to executives and investors with interests in the region.
