Chile's trade balance experienced a notable surge in December 2025, with the surplus reaching a record high of $3.59 billion. This development marks a significant increase from the previous month's figure of $1.90 billion, as recorded in November.
The latest data, updated on January 7, 2026, reveals a robust performance in Chile's international trade activities. This substantial rise in surplus is attributed to a combination of factors, including increased exports and favorable terms of trade, which have bolstered the country's economic position.
This positive shift in the trade balance not only highlights Chile's growing competitiveness in the global market but also bodes well for its overall economic prospects in the coming year. As the nation continues to capitalize on its natural resources and expand its trading partnerships, the outlook for Chile's trade activities remains optimistic.
