| Introduction | I spend my working hours following politics in Colombia, Central America, and the Caribbean in an effort to make market-relevant calls. Sometimes I'd like to take off my client-facing hat and write about what else transpires in LatAm beyond FX intervention, tax reform, and mining code revisions. This blog is an effort to move beyond market-focused research and say, well, what I really think is going on. And maybe make fun of terrible policy decisions. |
