Stablecoin volume, leading sectors and B2B adoption across LATAM, backed by data.
A regional comparison of AML duties for operating companies: SAGRILAFT in Colombia, vulnerable activities in Mexico and obliged persons in Brazil, with authorities, reports and penalties.
Brazil, Mexico and Colombia run public instant payment systems. This comparison shows how they differ, what their central banks report, and why none of them settles a payment between countries on its own.
An analysis for the CFO of a foreign company budgeting staff in Colombia: what makes up the total cost of an employee and how the labor reform increases stack up, with explicit formulas and assumptions.
Brazil, the OECD, and the United States hold this quarter's deadlines. This calendar lines up, country by country, what takes effect, what expires, and what a CFO with LATAM operations should prepare before January 2027.
A chronological look at what actually changed in Latin American B2B stablecoin payments through 2026, from regulation to volume, plus what is still open before the year ends.
Chile, Peru and Colombia share a trade bloc, but not a currency, a tax regime or the same crypto rules. Here is how money actually moves between the three today.
The real split in B2B stablecoin adoption in Latin America is not by country or sector: it is by company size. Whoever feels the friction most goes first.
A blockchain network fee is not a percentage of the amount sent. It moves with congestion, transaction complexity and timing. Here is the full cost stack behind an on-chain payment, built for a US finance team paying LATAM.
Central America now bills a growing share of service hours to US clients. Revenue comes in dollars, but the vendor's payroll and rent are paid in local currency.
Remittances and cross-border B2B payments often get added into the same market figure, yet they share almost nothing. Here is the comparison, with a source behind every number.
A finance team hiring remote talent in Latin America needs sourced numbers, not headlines. Here is what can actually be verified today.
Not every industry adopts B2B stablecoin payments at the same pace. The ones that move first share identifiable structural traits, not a technology preference.
Brazil is the United States' largest trading partner in services in Latin America. For a US company paying suppliers or a remote team in Brazil, that corridor runs through an exchange contract and a tax most finance teams underestimate.
The Bahamas has had one running since 2020. The Eastern Caribbean just paused its next version. Chile is testing without committing, and Colombia says it sees no reason to move. A country by country review, verified only.
The United States buys around 30% of Colombia's exports and already runs a services trade surplus with the country. That shift toward services triggers three distinct dollar flows for any US buyer working with a Colombian vendor.
Drex is not available and went through an infrastructure review announced in November 2025. A sober look at what is confirmed and what is still a promise.
B2B payments went from anecdote to the fastest-growing slice of stablecoin volume. What is behind the surge, and what part of it is still trading, not payments.
A dated scorecard of stablecoin figures for Latin America: how much volume moves, how fast it is growing, what share of institutions already use it, and what each number means for a treasury decision.
The Mexico-United States corridor is not one money flow but three, with different frictions and different fixes. Treating them as a single payments problem is why most of these projects stall halfway.
Nine jurisdictions, nine different answers. This map sets out who regulates, what is actually in force and what changes for a company that collects or pays in stablecoins.
An international transfer costs far more than the visible fee. We break down the full cost stack with data from the World Bank, the BIS and the FSB.
