As the second-largest country in Latin America,
Argentina has emerged as an attractive marketplace for global
investors. However, the country has a history of high inflation,
currency devaluation and political instability, which can add to
the risks of doing business there. Companies looking to expand into
Argentina must build up a thorough understanding of the economic
landscape and the country's evolving regulatory
environment.
Argentina, officially the Argentine Republic, is Latin
America's third-largest economy. The country comprises a
federation of 23 provinces as well as the autonomous city of Buenos
Aires.
Argentinians have a good quality of life, resulting in a
'very high' rating on the Human Development Index. The
country actively pursues strong international relations and is a
prominent member of several international trade associations,
including MERCOSUR (Southern Common Market), G20 and the Cairns
Group.
