Chile Glass 2018

The Glass Industry Event for Chile and South America

Santiago de Chile

With 7,5million inhabitants, Santiago is the country’s capital city, and is the most important urban area of Chile. The metropolitan area of the city has been called Gran Santiago, and is the capital of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago. Santiago is the seventh most populated city of South America, and the 35th largest metropolitan area in the world.

Chile’s capital is home to many of the country’s government (except for the National Congress, which is in Valparaiso), financial, commercial and cultural offices, and is considered as the third city of Latin America with regards to the quality of life, with an index of human development of more than 0.920, and per capita GDP of USD 18.465.


Chile’s political, institutional and financial scenario is stable thanks to its openness to international markets, and with a high degree of efficiency and a high level of investment protection. The country’s financial system, in particular with regards to banking, is developed and in line with international standards.

Thanks to the high number of commercial agreements (26 agreements in force with 64 markets, making up 86.3% of the total GDP), Chile can be considered as a ‘platform’ country from which all important Latin American countries can be reached. Chile’s economy is strongly oriented towards international markets, with considerable commercial.

The country has finalized the highest number of trade facilitations at worldwide level (75% of export-import takes place using preferential rates). There is considerable openness towards international investments, with foreign investors having the same opportunities and obligations as domestic investors, with operations permitted in almost all sectors. Chile is part of OMC, APEC, OMPI; it is an associated member of MERCOSUR and the Comunità Andina.

The country has agreements regarding the protection of investments with 20 European countries. The reduction of prices for raw materials on international markets, including copper, of which Chile is the first manufacturer (with about 30% of the world’s reserves), has had an important effect on the country’s economy, which has not, however, damaged Chile’s GDP, which has 2.1% annual growth.
