How much FDI does Guatemala attract compared with Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic and the rest of the region?

Net FDI inflows (World Bank, BoP, current US$) for 2022 / 2023 / 2024, and FDI as a share of GDP in 2024: Guatemala 1,450 / 1,650 / 1,848 M (1.6%); Costa Rica 5,212 / 5,299 / 5,403 M (5.6%); El Salvador 26 / 778 / 1,051 M (3.0%);… Honduras 758 / 578 / 478 M (1.3%);… Nicaragua 1,287 / 1,114 / 1,352 M (6.9%); Dominican Republic 4,050 / 4,751 / 4,476 M (3.6%);… Mexico 39,206 / 30,683 / 45,475 M (2.5%). The uncomfortable reading: Guatemala grows three years running and still takes in a third of Costa Rica's total (1,848/5,403 = 34%) and about 41% of the Dominican Republic's, with an economy of equal or greater size; on FDI as a share of GDP it beats only Honduras. UNCTAD: FDI into Latin America fell 12% in 2024 to US$164,000 M (the country annex is blocked). The Banguat figure for 2025 is US$1,881.7 M preliminary.
