Abstract
This paper focuses on the Portuguese direct investments carried out in Brazil in the 1990’s, seeking to highlight the Iberian logic underlying them. This view draws on the fact that the profile and strategy of these investments are akin to those of the Spanish investments undertaken in the 1980’s, even though the latter were directed at the whole of South America — particularly the countries of the so-called “South Cone” — and had a quite disparate relative weight. We begin by providing an outline of the Portuguese economy and its place in the European and world economies, so as to identify the correlation between the nature of Portuguese direct investments abroad and the limits and potentialities of its competitiveness, as well as the transformations undergone by this economy in recent times.
