Economic Growth To Strengthen Latin America's Fiscal Outlook

  • The forecast is for rising economic activity to strengthen the fiscal position of Latin America’s largest markets over the coming quarters.
  • Across most of the region, higher revenue collection from private consumption-led growth will outweigh modest spending increases.
  • Risks to the fiscal outlook are weighted to the downside, given the possibility for trade tensions to dampen growth in the region and political pressures to undercut commitments to fiscal prudence.
