In brief: Mexico

* Mexico’s government has released new figures showing that, between January and June 2019, it had saved M$113bn (US$5.93bn) as a result of reduced spending, fewer contracts, and consolidation of acquisitions, among other things. According to an official press release, Mexico’s federal electricity commission (CFE) and Mexico’s state-owned oil company Pemex accounted for over 72% of the savings, with the CFE accounting for M$45.4bn and Pemex, M$36.4bn.

For the CFE, reduced fuel usage was the main reason behind its ability to make savings.
