      • Paraguay has a small but relatively open economy and vast natural resources. Driven by agricultural production and foreign trade, the economy has expanded at an average annual rate of 7 percent over the past five years. However, the emergence of a more vibrant private sector remains constrained by institutional weaknesses, and progress on reforming the public sector has been uneven.
