So far this year, investments under Law 60/90 have totaled USD 179 million, a 24% increase over the previous year. This growth reflects the private sector’s confidence in the country’s economic potential and its ability to drive strategic sectors such as agribusiness and technology.

The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) estimates that every dollar invested in public infrastructure in Paraguay generates only $0.50 in economic returns over two years, well below the regional average of $1.10 and that of countries such as Chile ($2.70) or Peru ($2.00). This low return is due to delays in flagship projects, such as national highways and hospitals, as well as poor planning that diverts resources toward unproductive uses.
