US State Department: A look at Brazil

The US State Department has distributed on January 9 his “Background Note: Brazil” with updated information on Brazil. Among other informations the report tells that Brazil’s per capita GDP (purchasing power parity) is US$ 9,500 and that economy should have grew 5.4% in 2008.

The State Department additionally states that “Brazil is now a net creditor nation, and sustained growth, coupled with booming exports, healthy external accounts, moderate inflation, decreasing unemployment, and reductions in the debt-to-GDP ratio led two major rating agencies to give Brazil an investment-grade sovereign debt rating in early 2008.”

The US State Department keeps updated information on every country in the world and regularly releases this information to the public through Background Notes.
