On the platform, entrepreneurs can explore detailed analyses covering specific sectors, target markets, and even up-to-date data on exchange rates and logistics costs, such as freight and insurance. According to the Monitor, trade between Rio de Janeiro and the G20 countries amounted to an impressive US$ 43 billion last year.
The tool was introduced at a meeting of Firjan’s International Relations Business Council this week. In addition to quantitative data, the Monitor provides a geopolitical overview of each country, helping companies understand the challenges and advantages of negotiating by sector and industry.
“Users can apply filters to customize the type of information displayed and access data on their product or industry in various markets, along with current exchange rate information”, explains Giorgio Rossi, coordinator of Firjan International.
