Growth in Latin America and the Caribbean is expected to remain steady in 2025 and moderate slightly next year. Inflation convergence toward targets continues, though at a slower pace.

Addressing low productivity through targeted structural reforms is essential for enhancing business dynamism and boosting growth.
