Chile Day 2026 is a global sales trip for Chile, taking its biggest financial overhaul to Madrid and London. Jorge Quiroz, Chile's finance minister, is leading the reform aimed at making Chile a more attractive place for foreign investment. The reforms include making the peso a more international currency, expanding financial services exports, and scrapping the capital-gains tax on unlisted shares.

The event, organized by InBest and Chile's Finance Ministry, aims to prove Chile is open for business and calm domestic markets. The reforms could lead to cheaper loans for local firms and better returns on pensions, benefiting ordinary savers.

If Chile successfully presents itself as a stable and open economy during the European leg, it could attract more investment and spur further development projects.
