The Economic Situation in Latin America

A study of journalists and opinion leaders in 16 Latin American countries paints a very mixed picture of economic prospects in the region.

Results from the study (carried out in an online survey of journalists between November 2015-January 2016) include:

  • Chile and Uruguay came out on top for the best current economic situation, while Argentina and Cuba lead the perceptions of countries with the best 12 month outlook.
  • In general, the present and future of the Pacific Alliance countries’ economies – Chile, Colombia, Peru and Mexico – received a more favourable assessment than Atlantic states.
  • Venezuela’s economy is viewed with the greatest concern and received the most negative outlook, but there are also fears about Brazil, Central America and the Caribbean.
