Foreign Direct Investment in Latin America has dropped 16 percent in 2014 due to an economic deceleration and a fall in raw material prices, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) reported today.
The foreign direct investment in the region totaled 158,803 million dollars. «Latin America is the developing region which registered the steepest fall in terms of foreign direct investment,” Executive Secretary Alicia Bárcena said predicting a weak economic expansion for this year.
