Asdrúbal Oliveros, managing partner of Ecoanalítica, indicated that Venezuela’s trade sector experienced 1.1 % growth during the first six months of the year.

According to the economist, “the oil sector, the traditional engine of the economy, led the expansion with an increase of 14.8 %. Meanwhile, telecommunications grew 11 %, food 7 %, and health, which includes the production of medicines, 6 %.”

According to the director of Ecoanalítica, this is a notable performance in the trade sector thanks to the fact that “it was one of the beneficiaries of the economic reconfiguration following the 2016-2021 crisis,” when the country lost two-thirds of its economy.

Currently, according to Oliveros, there is a marked disparity in the trade landscape, as on the one hand, areas such as food, medicine, and automotive parts are performing well, while in items such as household appliances, clothing, and footwear, growth is weak as a result of the population’s low purchasing power and macroeconomic instability.

Regarding inflation, the specialist indicated that “the modest growth in trade is due in part to accelerated inflation in the first half of the year and a significant depreciation of the official exchange rate, which limits household consumption, especially for non-essential goods.”

The growth of the industrial sector in Venezuela during the first quarter of 2025 was 8.2 %, according to the Venezuelan Confederation of Industrialists (Conindustria) in its recent Industrial Situation Survey (ECI).

Luigi Pisella, president of Conindustria, attributed the positive performance to “a combination of factors such as the exchange rate correction, the elimination of tax exemptions on imported products, and the promotion of domestic production as a substitute for imports.”

He emphasized in a press conference that when “public policies favor local production, more robust value chains, jobs, and a stronger economy are generated.”

Conindustria highlights in its report that 44 % of manufacturing companies expect their production to increase in the next quarter. However, “installed capacity remains underutilized: the average was 45.8 %, with differences depending on company size. Large industries operate at 47.2 % of their capacity, while small ones barely reach 25.8 %.”

The organization highlighted the need for tax reform, proposing changing the VAT declaration period from biweekly to monthly, as well as reducing VAT withholding from 75 % to 50 %, in addition to recognizing tax credits for uncompensated withholdings.

Pisella believes that implementing these suggestions would simplify the tax burden, which is key “to strengthening the sector’s competitiveness and projecting Venezuela as an export powerhouse.”

The International Monetary Fund’s economic growth forecasts for Spain are expected to be higher than those for the Eurozone until 2030, thanks to positive deficit and debt forecasts.

In its World Economic Outlook report, the IMF predicts that Spain’s GDP growth will triple that of the Eurozone this year, “with an expansion of 2.5 % in 2025, compared to 0.8 % anticipated for the 2020s, and will see this gap narrow over the following years.”

On the other hand, the organization forecasts that by the end of the decade, Spain’s annual growth will be 1.6 %, while for the eurozone, the expansion would be 1.3 % in 2028, 1.2 % in 2029, and 1.1 % in 2030.

Regarding inflation, prices are expected to rise by 2.2 % in 2025 and 1.9 % in 2026, while they would rise by 2.1 % in 2027.

Regarding the unemployment rate in Spain, the IMF forecasts a decrease to 11.1 % in 2025 and 11 % in 2026. In this context, the number of employed persons is expected to continue to rise to 21.9 million in 2025 and exceed 22 million next year.

Issues such as debt and deficit are also addressed in the IMF report. In this regard, forecasts call for a decline to 2.7 % of GDP this year, “and a further decline in 2026, reaching 2.4 %.” In the case of public debt, this indicator will fall to 100.6 % in 2025 and “will continue to decline relative to GDP over the remainder of the IMF’s projection horizon, reaching 99 % of GDP in 2026.”

Colombia’s fintech industry will experience positive progress in 2025, setting the trend in the payments sector, with innovation and consolidation of current systems.

If 2024 was a good year thanks to the transformations in the region in terms of technological innovation and a regulatory environment, 2025 will be one of the trends.

One of them, with important advances, is tokenization and decentralized finance (DeFi). According to the report by the international consulting firm Boston Consulting Group, “the tokenization of real-world assets could represent a business opportunity of 600 billion by 2030, equivalent to 10% of the world’s GDP. In Colombia, the adoption of tokenization is growing, with initiatives that seek to democratize investments and diversify portfolios.”

Another trend will be experienced in the areas of digital payments and QR solutions. In this sense, it is appropriate to mention the figures of the Association of Fintech Companies of Colombia, where more than 50% of Colombians use some type of digital payment, such as payments through WhatsApp, digital wallets and QR codes.

This sector is followed by the so-called Open Banking that facilitates interoperability between banks and fintechs. This allows consumers to access a variety of financial products in a more efficient and personalized way.

The country will also experience greater adoption of Web3 and cryptocurrencies thanks to trust in “decentralized technologies and greater participation in the global digital economy.”

Peru will close 2024 with the fourth consecutive record in exports, having China, the United States and the European Union as receiving markets.

Growth in the export of goods from January to October was 14.5 %. This represents $ 60,168 million, thanks to “the greater volume exported (6.4 %) and the best prices (7.9 %), highlighting the growth in exports in the fishing (26.6 %), agricultural (23.3 %) and metal mining (15 %) sectors.”

The Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism, Desilú León Chempén, has pointed out that Peru has far exceeded $73 billion in shipments and added that “this achievement is not only a sign of the hard work of the private sector, but of the actions promoted by Mincetur to provide companies with tools that strengthen them, as well as the effective commercial promotion strategy and, in this way, continue to open new markets for products.”

Exports by sector are: in the agricultural sector $9,667 million with products such as cocoa (296 %), coffee (60.8%) and fruit: blueberry (49.2 %), avocado (29.4 %), mandarin (26.7 %), and lemon/derivatives (41.7 %). The export of natural colorants (19.7 %) and rice (89 %) also increased.

In the fishing sector, which exported $3.302 million, anchovy derivatives were at the top, such as oil and flour (104 %), scallops (80.3 %) and frozen/canned fish (45.6 %).

In textiles and clothing, with $1.346 million (1.1 %), thanks to the higher export volumes (8.3 %), the items that stood out were clothing (2 %), fabrics (10.3 %) and fibers (0.1 %).

Iron and steel exports, which recorded sales of $1.492 million, showed an increase in the sale of refined copper wire (36.3 %), copper sheets (93.6 %), silver bars (83.2 %), scrap (102.3 %), and metal structures (38 %).

The president of the National Council of Commerce and Services (Consecomercio), Gustavo Valecillos, Venezuela will close this year with a growth of the sector between 2.5 % and 3 %.

Valecillos trusts in the ongoing efforts to reduce the exchange rate gap between the BCV dollar and the parallel market dollar, as a way to face its effects on the economy.

He emphasized Consecomercio’s effort to comply with the legal exchange rate of the BCV, “so that we cannot compete against an informal merchant, who does not pay any type of tax, neither national nor regional.”

Valecillos believes that the current inflationary process is a consequence of the gap between the official dollar and the parallel dollar, which boost the modification of the prices of goods and services.

He referred to the dynamics of the economy in the last quarter of the year, when public spending increases, there are more bolivars on the street and therefore the demand for foreign currency increases.

“We are prepared, and we have warned that the inventories were paid in foreign currency and if they want to replenish those inventories they must be collected in foreign currency, this has been difficult, but they maintain their dynamics and the expectations that the months of November and December will be the ones with the greatest operations for some seasonal sectors such as toys, clothing, footwear,” he explained.

In this sense, efforts are aimed at closing the year with a growth of 2.5 % or 3 %. Valecillos indicated that “the general economy, based on the studies they have received, should grow a little more, approximately 5, 6 or 7 %.”

Growth in the region made up of Latin America and the Caribbean is a priority for the International Monetary Fund. For this reason, it has urged governments to allocate the necessary resources to face current economic, fiscal and social challenges.

On Friday, October 25, the international organization asked representatives of Latin America and the Caribbean to include in their agenda the discussion of reforms that will allow them to boost their economy.

“In its Regional Economic Outlook, the IMF projected that the region’s growth will accelerate from 2.1 percent this year to 2.5 percent in 2025. But the expansion of the so-called AL7 group, which includes Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay, is projected to slow from 2.4 percent in 2024 to 2.0 percent next year.”

According to Rodrigo Valdés, director of the IMF’s Western Hemisphere Department, “the urgency of deepening reforms for growth really applies to almost all economies in the region.”

According to the IMF’s estimates of medium-term growth for the region (excluding Argentina and Venezuela), it “is projected to be around 2.5 percent annually over the next five years and will likely remain close to its low historical average. This reflects persistent and unresolved challenges, such as low investment, slow productivity growth and demographic changes.”

The IMF stressed in its report that low economic growth is marked by factors such as social discontent, entrenched populist policies, “slowdown in the expansion of the labor force due to falling birth rates and an aging population,” among others.

The absence of fiscal consolidation reforms will cause the region’s debt to continue to grow, according to the IMF, which has asked governments to increase personal income tax collection.

The Bitcoin Bull Cycle 2025, an anticipation period during which the cryptocurrency could increase in price significantly, keeps investors on the lookout for long-term profits.

On this occasion, considering different market factors, different analysts such as Crypto Dan predict a scenario similar to the bull cycles of 2013 and 2020.

For those who trade bitcoin, the Bull Cycle 2025 “promises to be a golden opportunity for investors who have maintained their focus on the long term.” Crypto Dan highlights notable similarities with the boom periods in 2013 and 2020, and identifies “a two-phase growth pattern.” Profits can reach investors before the market peaks.

In any case, for the Bitcoin 2025 Bull Cycle, factors such as the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) are analyzed, which indicates “whether long-term holders are selling at a loss or profit. Values ​​​​greater than 1 indicate sales at a profit, suggesting a robust bull market. Current SOPR data indicate a similarity with past bull cycles, strengthening the forecast of a positive cycle.”

The global interest rate and liquidity are also considered, which help define strategies for long-term investment. Traders do not focus on short-term market fluctuations, but on “continuous accumulation, based on historical analysis and market trends that point to sustained growth.”
