Brazil

Brazil is a leader in entrepreneurship*, with an estimated one in eight adults being “entrepreneurs.” Much of the business that occurs in Brazil is done by single businesspeople either selling their homemade goods or providing their services. Foreign entrepreneurship is a bit of a rarity in Brazil. It is simple for a local businessperson to open a business by, in most cases, circumventing the typical red tape* associated with starting a business. The regulatory boards are so poorly managed and so open to bribes* that local entrepreneurs can easily sneak by without following proper procedure. For foreign businesspeople it is much more difficult. Foreigners draw attention to themselves (by merely being foreigners) and therefore fall prey to greater scrutiny. It is imperative for the foreign businessperson to hire a good “despachante” or broker to handle their interactions with government officials.

Based on the text, we can assume that opening a business in Brazil is always easier for locals than for foreigners, due to the absence of any regulatory complications for Brazilians.

In the sentence “Foreign entrepreneurship is a bit of a rarity in Brazil,” the use of the expression “a bit of a” serves to soften the meaning of “rarity,” implying that foreign entrepreneurship is uncommon, though not entirely absent.

The verb form in the clause “Foreigners draw attention to themselves” is incorrect because it should agree with “Foreigners” as a plural noun, and therefore should be “draws.”

The word “despachante” is written in italics in the original text to emphasize its informal status in English, and its function as a slang term rather than a formal title.
