It has a mixed economy with abundant natural resources and is projected to become one of the five largest in the world in the decades to come.
Data suggests that the economy in Brazil has turned a corner, after GDP contracted sharply in 2016. The manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index recorded the best result in over two years in March and both business and consumer confidence rested at multi-year highs. In addition, the country logged a record $7.1 billion trade surplus in March, aided by strengthening commodity prices.
Argentina’s economy, meanwhile, is buoyed by rich natural resources, a highly literate population, a diversified industrial base and an export-oriented agricultural sector. Its economy is Latin America’s third-largest, and the second largest in South America. It has a “very high” rating on the Human Development Index and a relatively high GDP per capita, with a considerable internal market size and a growing share of the high-tech sector.
