AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Brazil’s Business Climate: Lula won reelection with 51.77% of the vote. Small firms will be watching the impact of a newly approved 40-hour workweek, which business leaders warn could raise labor costs. SME Finance: Colombia’s Bold secured an $11.7 million loan from BBVA Spark to expand lending to small businesses, using sales activity—not just credit history—to assess borrowers. Business Support: Belize’s BEEP provided $788,000 in financing and advisory services to 95 small and midsize businesses, including start-ups and prospective exporters. Digital Trade: Cross-border payments platform XTransfer has registered in Chile as it expands services for Latin American SMEs facing currency and settlement hurdles. Tourism: Sixteen independent Negril resorts have joined a marketing effort to help smaller Jamaican properties compete with global hotel brands.
