Volatility in the Latin American paper market

Access the data story to learn more about the state of the Latin American paper market

Domestic pulp and paper production indices across Latin America have remained volatile in recent months.

Prices assessed by Fastmarkets have continued to increase in Latin America in the third quarter of 2024. This reflects the higher cost of inflation across the pulp and paper supply chains, plus higher export and import parities given the general weakening of local currencies versus the US dollar. We have expected this since the start of the year.
