People have been urged to consider investments in Brazil with significant growth expected in the run up to the 2014 World Cup .
JPMorgan has claimed that the country's exports have tripled in the past five years, even tough the country's infrastructure has changed very little.
With a World Cup in 2014 and then an Olympic games two years after that likely to see huge infrastructure investment, the company is capitalising on this by setting up the JPMorgan Brazil Investment Trust, focussed on investing in Brazil's domestic growth.
Sebastian Luparia, who will manage the JPMorgan Brazil Investment Trust, explained exactly why the 2016 games will be so important.
"In addition to investment in the lead up to these major events, according to estimates, hosting the Olympic Games on average directly stimulates around a 1.5 per cent increase in a country's GDP, rising to three per cent in cities such as Rio de Janeiro that do not have strong infrastructure prior to hosting events of this scale."
A survey of Barclays Stockbrokers recently showed that emerging markets such as Brazil and India were the most attractive proposition for the majority of investors .
