Chile’s finance minister acknowledged that the economy is in recession and forecast growth of about 4% in 2028. He said tax cuts and looser regulation would support recovery, while a copper-mining crisis is weighing on the economy.

Why it matters

The recession affects Chilean households and businesses. The report identifies no direct U.S. consequence, though economic changes in a copper-producing country could matter to buyers and companies; it gives no estimate of that effect.

What happens next

Quiroz says the government’s tax-cut and regulatory plans will help drive a rebound. The report does not provide a timetable for those measures or evidence confirming the 2028 growth forecast.
