Public investment projects (PIP) are currently vital for closing structural gaps, reactivating local economies in the post-pandemic era, and reducing inequalities. In this context, the aim of the present research was to analyze empirical evidence from regional studies on the impact of Risk Management (RM) on the Outcomes of Public Investment Projects in Latin America (2017-2025), through the development of a systematic review. This systematic review was implemented following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, using a quantitative-descriptive approach and a retrospective longitudinal design (2017-2025). A total of 44 studies (2%) were selected from 2,150 initial records. Temporally, 66.7% of the 30 analyzed studies were published between 2021 and 2023, peaking in 2023 (28.6%). Thematically, 50% reported operational efficiency (with deadlines met up to 98% using MEIP/G2G models), while 40% identified barriers such as corruption (accounting for 70% of delays). The findings confirm that RM is a critical determinant for the success of PIPs in Latin America, significantly enhancing compliance with deadlines, costs, and quality.
