Why investing in Chile?

An old saying of savvy investors goes like “Never put all the eggs in one basket” so why don’t try an emerging market in South America whose main characteristics are its political and economic stability based on a simple yet strong Constitution, with citizens well educated and strongly rooted on democratic practices. The three Chilean branches: the Executive, the legislative and the judicial are independent with the two first elected by the people and the third one nominated by the President with the approval of the Parliament.

In the economic area the Finance Ministry’s mission is to ”maximize the government’s economic policy to promote the best use and performance of the country’s productive resources, thus achieving an elevated, stable rate of economic growth for an improved quality of life for all Chilean citizens, particularly for the most needy and vulnerable sectors” with an independent Central Bank devoted to “ensure the stability of the value of the national currency and the normal functioning of domestic and foreign payments. To achieve these objectives, a suitable macroeconomic balance must be maintained within the formulation of all policies to be projected in time”.

So, with a clearly stable political and macroeconomic internal scenario –which in turn guarantees profitability and stability to any foreign investor- the Chilean economy is intertwined to the world market through a network of more than 60 odd countries or regional association of countries –Association Agreements with: European Union and P4 (New Zealand, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam, and Chile); Free Trade Agreements with: Canada, U.S.A., Mexico, South Korea and Central America; Preferential Trade Agreements with: Argentina, Colombia Bolivia, Ecuador, MERCOSUR, Peru and Venezuela- covering almost 90% of our exports with commercial preferences and covering the most important consumer markets of the world.
This is what Chile offers. Why don’t give it a chance to explore these opportunities by yourself?..
