Brazil Country Analysis: 2012-2017: An Evaluation of Political, Social, Economic and Business Risk, July 2012
From an economic perspective, Brazil emerges as one of the most stable and prosperous countries in Latin America with a $2.47 GDP in 2011. The Brazilian economy is anticipated to achieve $3.17 trillion by 2017 with 4.3% CAGR during 2012-2017. Brazil's political stability has acted as a boon for the country making it a favourable destination for FDI and FII. The economy also reflects a low risk from the Euro crisis indicating a robust risk position.
Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm, makes a concise study and an insightful analysis on Brazil's political, economic, social, and business risk and presents its findings in “Brazil Country Analysis 2012-2017: An Evaluation of Political, Social, Economic, and Business Risk”.
Brazil managed to survive the recession and has continued its growth momentum trying to make a place for itself in the global market. But high tax rate and interest rate have surfaced as a major concern coupled with increasing inflation. Lucintel has however; found certain opportunities in Brazil to break away from these obstacles. Brazil is the fifth most populous country which drives huge market opportunities with a growing skilled manpower available at lower cost. This has opened up the door for 100% FDI in such major driving sectors as iron and bauxite reserve, oil and gas, etc. which have eventually contributed in the economic stability of the country. It is noticed that R&D spending is less than the average in the advanced economies which the government has focused upon. Brazil's environmental concern is apparent in the voluntary steps taken to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
