The short and long-term outlook for Latin America: the good, the bad and the ugly



Latin America has enjoyed a decade of strong tailwinds from increasing commodity prices, strong demand coming from China and favorable international financial conditions. Those winds are now receding and the day or reckoning may be upon the region.

The webinar will address some important questions for the region:
- will it be different this time for Latin America or is it heading for the usual bust after the boom?
- Is the region preparing for the long-run?
- How will it bridge a more challenging short-run outlook and possible external shocks coming its way?
- What are the main domestic risks?
