Value sales of drinking milk products are expected to grow by 6% in 2013 to Won4 trillion in 2013. The market suffered from an imbalance between demand and supply of raw milk in the first half of 2012, however, price promotion by the dairy producers supported sales in the second half of the year and 2013. Aggressive promotion was caused by an attempt by the main manufacturers to gain market share, however, brand loyalty is high in this market as consumers rarely like to change their tastes once they get used to a specific milk product.

Though signs of growth are beginning to return to the Caribbean, economies within the region continue to feel the spillover effects of the 2009 financial crisis, which strongly shook the region's key industries of tourism and finance.

Despite these difficulties, some markets, most notably Jamaica and Dominican Republic, are expected to outperform over the forecast period.

Value sales of dried processed food in South Korea will decline by 1%, while volume sales will fall by 3% in 2013.

Traditionally, rice is the staple for the local diet, however, the popularity of other carbohydrates such as bread is impacting rice consumption.

BMI View: We expect uneven mining sector growth through 2018 across various countries within Central America and the Caribbean.

Overall, we expect Colombia and Panama to see the strongest mining sector growth, while Guatemala, and to a lesser extent Honduras, underperform.

BMI View: Positive developments in the regulatory environment during the first quarter of 2014 have improved our overall outlook for the Mexican telecoms sector. We have frequently noted that the market is underdeveloped in comparison to other Latin American peers but its low mobile penetration rate and high population make it one of the markets with the most potential. The creation of a new regulator IFT, with more powers to enact policy changes than its predecessor has already begun to take action, introducing asymmetric mobile and fixed termination rates aimed at reducing the po wer of dominant operator Am?rica M?vil . We have therefore upgraded a number of our forecasts this quarter to reflect our increasing optimism about the direction of the market, although we caution that Am?rica M?vil will be unlikely to accept these decisions and will use any method to maintain its position.
