Long-term targets: 2.5 million quality jobs, doubling exports and reaching GDP per capita of US$14,500 by 2032; some reports cite 2030 as the horizon for the jobs, a discrepancy the dossier leaves unresolved. Interim targets set for 2024: +US$1,200 million in exports, gross fixed capital formation at or above 14.5% of GDP, engineering works at 2.7% of GDP, US$1,378 million of FDI and 63,000 new formal jobs. The dossier does not record how far the 2024 targets were met; it proposes tracking that through the progress reports at guatemalanosedetiene.gt and, as a proxy for formal employment, the IGSS affiliation bulletins.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
