South America is a continent with diverse landscapes, cultures, and investment opportunities. It spans from the mighty Andes Mountains in the west to the vast Amazon Basin and expansive lowlands in the east, with coastlines on the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The interior and far south are more sparsely populated, while most people live near the continent’s coasts and metropolitan centres.
