Latin America likely to embark on needed reforms: IADB
Moreno said most countries understand that reforms to improve productivity are crucial for the region to return to the annual growth rates of 5 percent over the last decade.
"Historically Latin America has been better at dealing with crises than managing the good times," Moreno told Reuters on the sidelines of the IADB's annual meeting in Costa do Saiupe.
"Everybody understands that you need to evolve. Precisely because of the volatility, which will likely drag on for the next 18 months, reforms become even more important."
Latin America's economy is expected to grow only 3 percent this year after expanding a staggering 6 percent four years ago, according to data from the International Monetary Fund.
