3 Recovery is becoming more uneven. Activity in some of the large economies is slowing, even coming to a halt in some cases. LAC countries continue to register primary deficits that exceed debt-stabilizing levels, limiting the scope for fiscal support. Higher energy prices and continued depreciation limit the room to maneuver interest rate policy; real policy rates below neutral. Exchange rate flexibility remains key. Despite increased downside risks, countries should continue to focus on much-needed structural reforms to boost productive capacity and ensure strong, durable, and inclusive growth. 3
