Latin America's Economic Prospects in 2017

The Council of the Americas will hold a luncheon discussion on Latin America in 2017 with Jorge Familiar, vice president for Latin America and the Caribbean at the World Bank. 

Latin America has reached a turning point as its economies adjust to periods of slower growth, political uncertainty, and budget cuts. As the region faces a global slowdown of commodity prices, increased interest rates, and external uncertainty, what challenges and opportunities are in store for Latin America in 2017? Familiar will discuss prospects for economic growth in the hemisphere in this uncertain environment.
