Discover the opportunities and challenges for businesses operating in this dynamic region.
Latin America is entering a period of rapid change. A shift in US policy under the second Trump administration has intensified great power competition across infrastructure, energy, and critical minerals — with significant implications for international businesses and investors.
At the same time, inflation, currency volatility, debt pressures, and external shocks are straining governments, while rising social tensions, declining public trust, organised crime, and disruptive technologies add further complexity.
For organisations operating in the region, these overlapping pressures are reshaping the compliance landscape. Even the most sophisticated businesses are being tested in their ability to anticipate and respond.
