Report summary
From Argentina to Mexico, Latin America is experiencing a new investment climate that could transform the outlook for copper supply over the next decade. In a world transitioning to cleaner energy, and hungry for critical minerals, Latin America's mineral endowment of more than 50% of global copper resources, in addition to other critical minerals, makes it a key player. The development of these resources could be mutually beneficial to the region and the global market. In this Insight, we summarise the emerging investment landscape in Latin America and examine the impact that new policies in countries such as Argentina, will have on project development and flows of capital.
