AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Trade Talks: Ecuador and the Dominican Republic have kicked off negotiations for a partial trade agreement to expand market access and clarify rules on origin, trade facilitation, and sanitary and phytosanitary measures, with Ecuador already running a 2025 goods surplus of about $128M and exports rising 11.4% in early 2026. Agri/Exports: Ecuador’s shrimp industry is hitting new highs, exporting 165,538 metric tons in May (+9% y/y) and reaching a record monthly value of $847M, with China the top destination and firms pushing more value-added product diversification. Energy Policy: The IEA says 113 countries (plus the EU) have taken steps to cut energy taxes or add support measures in response to the Iran war, shaping near-term cost pressures for consumers and businesses. Human Trafficking Enforcement: A coordinated “Global Chain” crackdown across 59 countries led to 2,070 victims identified, 1,024 suspects arrested, and 465 investigations launched. Retirement Demand: A guide argues a $2,000-a-month retirement can work in Ecuador—especially in Cuenca—if housing and visa/healthcare rules are planned from the start. World Cup Business Angle: Ecuador fans and other visitors keep driving demand around the tournament, including new premium watch-party setups like Pig Beach’s “Soccer Suite.”
