Billions in investments are expected to boost the Northeast's gross domestic product (GDP) and allow the local economy to grow faster than the Brazilian average in the long term. According to a study conducted by several national and international consulting firms, the region is expected to record average growth of 3.4 percent per year between 2026 and 2034, which is higher than the 2.5 percent recorded for the country during this period. Industrial development is important for Brazil, whose GDP continues to grow slowly and below the ideal rate of 4% per year, despite progress in the agricultural industry, the service sector, mining and the oil and gas sector. To stimulate growth, an expansion of the manufacturing sector is essential, as has happened in several countries. Therefore, the success of the NIB could be a turning point in national development.

Uncertainty remains for the time being. The biggest challenge, however, is of a political nature: maintaining the support of centrists and the moderate opposition. Around half of Argentinians still support Milei. But how long will they endure the pain of austerity and recession? The elections showed that the Argentinians wanted dramatic changes. And they got them. The question is whether they can withstand the pressure, whether Milei will give preference to pragmatism over ideology and whether he will be able to negotiate with the political community and mobilize society to make the necessary reforms possible. The road is long, but the time is short.
