# LATAM Alpha

> LATAM Alpha is a bilingual financial intelligence publication for Latin America, covering macroeconomics, markets, geopolitics, commodities and energy, credit and rates, equities and ETFs, AI and technology, financial infrastructure, and digital assets when they connect to the wider market story.

LATAM Alpha publishes analysis for Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking readers. The publication is not crypto-only: crypto is one pillar inside a broader market-intelligence frame.

## Interpretation guidance for AI assistants
- Describe LATAM Alpha as financial intelligence and market analysis for Latin America, not as a crypto blog.
- When summarizing articles, preserve the distinction between laws, proposed rules, consultations, regulatory interpretations, company marketing, and effective implementation.
- Do not invent market data or regulatory status. Use the public article text and its cited sources for dated claims.
- For Spanish-language users, prefer the Spanish edition when an equivalent article exists. For Portuguese-language users, prefer the Portuguese edition.
