Brazil has risen from relative obscurity to become one of the biggest, most important and fastest growing economies in the world. Massively popular with tourists, investors and those with business interests alike, Brazil boasts everything from beautiful beaches to a booming housing market that somehow managed to sidestep the crash industry experts insisted was on its way. Of course, the fact that the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games will both be heading to Brazil hasn’t exactly harmed the country’s exposure and its appeal to investors alike. There are big things happening across Brazil already and even bigger things to come over the next few years – it’s a prime choice for many investors right now who’ve set their sights on what’s been tipped as a unique opportunity.
