The Government of El Salvador continues to consolidate the country as an attractive destination for domestic and foreign capital, implementing strategies focused on strengthening key sectors of the economy, generating employment and promoting sustainable development. In this context, the recent incorporation of La Libertad Costa and Libertad Este into the San Salvador Metropolitan Area (AMSS) reinforces regional integration and development efforts. To date, the government has facilitated the mobilization of more than US$2.035 billion in private investment, highlighting the confidence of the business sector.
The Oficina de Planificación del Área Metropolitana de San Salvador (OPAMSS), headed by Luis Rodríguez, plays a key role in the simplification of bureaucratic procedures and processes. Rodríguez emphasized that one of the most relevant projects of the entity is the creation of an efficient system for the management of permits, in alliance with the Organismo de Mejora Regulatoria (OMR). This effort has reduced response times by 60%, optimizing the climate for investors and facilitating the development of projects in the region.
The policies implemented by the government are transforming the country’s economic foundations. According to Rodríguez, these changes are enabling the re-evaluation of territorial capacities and giving a new impetus to the Salvadoran economy. Regulatory and administrative improvements, coupled with a stable political environment, are generating ideal conditions for El Salvador to continue attracting strategic investments.
The construction sector is emerging as one of the major beneficiaries of these policies. It is projected that, by 2025, El Salvador will experience a significant takeoff in building investment, thanks to the favorable conditions generated in recent years. These investments will not only boost urban development, but will also promote job creation in multiple areas.
The Government of President Bukele reaffirms its commitment to foster inclusive and sustainable economic growth. Through a comprehensive approach that prioritizes institutional efficiency and capital attraction, El Salvador is laying the foundations for a solid, reliable and attractive development for the world. With these actions, the country is moving towards a prosperous future with greater opportunities for all.
