AMI Publishes Latin American E-Commerce Whitepaper

Miami, FL, May 1, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Americas Market Intelligence (AMI)—the premier strategic market intelligence firm for Latin America—has published a free whitepaper about e-commerce in Latin America from a payments perspective. Entitled Insights to Win to E-Commerce in Latin America, the whitepaper offers guidance for merchants and financial institutions to help them navigate payment options in the region.

“Annual growth projections for e-commerce in Latin America over the next few years range from 19% to 30%, with some markets like Argentina posting as much as 51% growth in 2016,” says Lindsay Lehr, Senior Director, Payments Practice, Americas Market Intelligence. “However, many merchants aren’t as familiar as they could be with the local payments landscape, which is a key to reaching Latin American online shoppers. Our whitepaper is meant to help with that,” says Lehr.​
