Orgulloso de recibir a Caroline Vik, Directora de Políticas Públicas de la U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), en su primera visita a Chile. La @DFCgov es la agencia de financiamiento para el desarrollo del gobierno de EEUU. Valoro que sostenga reuniones con ministros, @SofofaChil, @AmChamChile y otros actores clave para abordar oportunidades de inversión estadounidense e infraestructura estratégica confiable. Ella, al igual que yo, sabe que contar con un mecanismo de investment screening es crítico para Chile. Los chilenos quieren más inversión de EE.UU., y estamos acercando las herramientas para hacerlo realidad.
