The Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) income payments in Chile's water supply and waste management sector have experienced significant fluctuations over the past decade. Starting with a high in 2014, where it peaked at $244.02 million, the sector saw a considerable decline in the following years with the lowest point in 2020 at $38.38 million. However, since 2021, there has been a notable recovery, with a year-on-year increase of 106.64% in that year alone, leading to a value of $103.3 million in 2023.
The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the past five years has averaged at a modest rate, reflecting gradual and stable growth. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 predicts a continuous but slow increase, with minor yearly increments indicating a stable outlook.
Future trends to watch for in this sector include the impact of regulatory changes, potential environmental policies boosting sustainable investments, and technological advancements driving efficiency and cost reductions in water management.
