La relación entre Corea y América Latina y el Caribe ha recorrido un largo camino. Cuando las dos economías adoptaron el comercio entre sí a principios de los años 90, su conexión pasó de ser irrelevante a ser una máquina de riqueza. El comercio bilateral creció a una impresionante tasa anual del 11,5%, alcanzando un récord en 2021.

The trade boom was followed by US$26 billion in investments by Korean firms in the region since 2000. Despite this meteoric rise, lingering trade barriers remain, and new challenges are emerging from a string of disruptive shocks to the global economyprotectionist backlashes; growing and interrelated sanitary, food, energy, and climate crises; and a fast-moving “digital transformation.” This monograph argues that, despite the challenges, both economies have a set of policies, institutions, and comparative advantages that, if reinforced and leveraged by trade and cooperation, can turn these shocks into bilateral and global opportunities for inclusive and sustainable growth.
