Abstract: Abstract Brazil is the largest nation in Latin America, with over half of the total land mass and approximately half of the population. The economy produces about half of the region’s aggregate gross domestic product, and is one of the most diversified economies of the developing world. Close to 60 per cent of merchandise exports consists of industrial products, and these are diversified across many commodity lines.
