Abstract

Contrary to prevailing wisdom, Latin American countries that opened their markets to international competition during the last decade have not been more vulnerable to the global economic downturn. The OECD Latin American Economic Outlook 2010 provides a fresh analysis of economic trends in the region with a particular focus on the role that international migration and remittances play in shaping the current context. "This excellent report correctly emphasises the less known and studied aspects of the complex and heterogeneous phenomenon of migration, allowing a broader vision of the topic." Fr

Abstract

Are Latin American governments maximising the potential of fiscal policy as a development tool? The 2009 edition of the Latin American Economic Outlook shows that governments in the region could do much more to exploit the ability of fiscal policy to boost economic growth and combat poverty and inequality. ""An important step forward in the dialogue and exchange of experiences between OECD countries and our region."" . -Alicia Bárcena, Executive Secretary, ECLAC. ""This publication will provide those concerned with Latin America's future with valuable lessons for fiscal policy drawn from the e

Abstract

While democratic regimes seem to be firmly rooted in the region, Latin American economies continue to experience sustained economic growth, benefiting from the ongoing process of globalisation. This Latin American Economic Outlook , the first volume in an annual series by the OECD Development Centre, provides original insights and comparative indicators on four key issues affecting Latin America's development: the impact of fiscal performance on democratic legitimacy; the relevance of pension fund reform and governance for national saving and capital markets deepening; the role market-seeking

Abstract

Despite the recent deterioration in the global economic environment, projections for the region involve only a modest worsening of the outlook. The October 2011 Regional Economic Outlook: Western Hemisphere cautions, however, that there are severe downside risks. A sharp slowdown in Asia, for example in response to a recession in advanced economies, could impact commodity prices, with negative effects on Latin American commodity exporters. With global monetary policy likely to remain accommodative, capital flows could exacerbate overheating and amplify vulnerabilities in emerging markets. Countries with strong real linkages to the United States face a somewhat weaker outlook and should give priority to reducing public debt. Although much of the Caribbean is recovering from a prolonged recession, the outlook remains constrained by high public debt and weak tourism flows. This issue finds that policies can play an important role in mitigating the economic impact of terms-of-trade shocks, and underscores the need to rebuild policy buffers.

Abstract

El año pasado el Hemisferio Occidental tuvo un sólido desempeño económico, a pesar de que en los últimos trimestres el crecimiento de Estados Unidos fue más lento. ¿Se pueden mantener estos resultados, y qué desafíos enfrenta la región? Al examinar las perspectivas y los riesgos macroeconómicos, este informe presta especial atención a la influencia del contexto externo en América Latina, y aborda la cuestión de si América Latina ha logrado dejar atrás su historial de retrocesos periódicos del crecimiento.

Abstract

La crisis internacional, que tuvo origen en las economías avanzadas, ha provocado fuertes shocks en todo el mundo y pone a prueba a las economías de América Latina y el Caribe. La buena noticia es que, durante esta década, la región aumentó su capacidad de recuperarse de los shocks externos, al fortalecer sus marcos de políticas y reducir las vulnerabilidades de sus finanzas públicas y sistemas financieros. Esto significa que los países ahora pueden responder mejor a las crisis externas, en muchos casos por primera vez, aplicando políticas enérgicas que fomentan la producción y el empleo, y que protegen a los grupos más vulnerables. Esto ayuda a limitar el daño causado por la crisis mundial y acelera la recuperación de la región.
