During the meeting, Hayem highlighted the legal security and stability that El Salvador offers to investors, emphasizing that factors such as the reduction of violence and the agility in business procedures position the country as an attractive destination. “Security, a basic right, today is a luxury in many countries, but here we guarantee a solid business climate for companies to operate and grow”, said the head of the country.
Ambassador Álvarez Cibanal underscored the profile of the participating Spanish companies, characterized by their solid track record and long-term commitment. “They are companies with a presence in Latin America that generate employment, transfer knowledge and contribute to local development”, she explained.
