Mexico - September 2022
Challenges remain despite positive FDI figures
On 22 August, Mexico’s economy ministry (SE) released preliminary figures showing that foreign direct investment (FDI) in the country totalled US$27.5bn during the first six months of the year. Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador hailed the figures as “historic”, stating they represented a 49.2% increase on the FDI received in the same period of 2021. He said this was proof of Mexico’s economic stability and the trust that investors held in the country. However, despite the strong FDI figures, many challenges remain for investors in Mexico.
