Political conditions in Argentina, Peru, and Chile raise questions about where economies are headed. In today’s episode, an overview of what to expect in upcoming months — where the risks lie, where there might be reasons for optimism ahead and how external factors, like China’s growing economic problems, could affect the region. Our guest is Ernesto Revilla, head of Latin America economics at Citigroup.
