Abstract
With variations across countries, Latin
America's economic agenda will change over the next few
years. Fiscal policy will be monitored more independently,
and may lean more against cycles. Financial regulation will
be heavier, and less attuned with a single international
model. Innovation will be at the center of trade strategies.
Equity will begin to replace equality as the driver of
social programs. More state agencies will be managed by
results, starting the long process of earning citizens'
trust. The region will play a larger global role, led by
Brazil. And if the world's economy holds, most Latin
Americans will be on a faster development path.
