Notes:
123 p., The factors behind a more positive performance include the continued dynamism of some key Asian economies, whose sustained demand for products from this region has created important conditions for a recovery in exports. Similarly, the recovery of the U.S. economy, though gradual, contributes to a better scenario for Mexico, Central America and, to the extent that raises the demand for tourism, possibly also for the Caribbean. For the latter, some recovery is projected in remittances from that country by migrant workers in the region.

57 p., Conveys three key messages: first, in this new global economic environment, key structural characteristics of Latin American and Caribbean countries are defining two quite different regional clusters in terms of opportunities and challenges ahead. Second, substantial changes in trade and capital flow patterns, as well as in the international financial architecture, are already taking place and will impact the regional clusters in different ways. Third, economic policy design will have to accommodate these differences in order to ensure widespread and stable growth.
