Details
- Abstract / Summary
- Brazil presents substantial opportunities for foreign investors, with abundant natural resources and a growing middle class consumer base among the main attractions of the country's vibrant economy. However, the business environment is hampered by significant bureaucracy, government intervention in the form of onerous taxes, lingering corruption issues, and an overburdened judiciary. In particular, the huge corruption scandal engulfing state-owned oil company Petrobras has plunged the economy into recession and heightened investor caution towards Brazil over the short term. These factors increase the operational difficulties faced by businesses, but we note that Brazil offers such lucrative opportunities that many investors remain prepared to overcome the numerous barriers.
