August 2023. The annual report entitled “Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Latin America and the Caribbean 2023 ,” presented by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), conducted an analysis of FDI attraction, demonstrating that 71% of the components analyzed correspond to reinvestment of profits. In other words, companies already present in the country are choosing to reinvest.

On a regional level, Costa Rica continues to outperform other Central American countries, reaching nearly $3.7 billion in Foreign Direct Investment in 2022, mostly coming from the United States. ECLAC has emphasized the significance of the Medical Devices sector in connection with this growth, which represents most of the exports (41%) of the country.

This percentage of reinvestment indicates that companies already based in our country have confidence in the established system for its operations, thus creating an opportunity for those who have not decided yet where to set up.
