Latin America: Views on the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative.

摘要

On June 27, 1990, President Bush announced a new three-pronged approach to stimulate sustained economic development in Latin America and the Caribbean. This approach--the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative--called for the United States to (1) expand two-way trade with Latin American and Caribbean countries, (2) reduce and restructure their official bilateral debt owed to the U.S. government, and (3) promote direct investment in the region. This Initiative complements Brady Plan efforts to restructure the commercial debt of highly indebted countries.
