Political and economic uncertainty is the theme of the year. Mexico’s presidential elections have the business
and investment communities holding their breath. The proposals generated by the presidential candidates will
without a doubt impact the development of the economy in the coming years. Left-leaning and leading candidate
Andr s Manuel L pez Obrador has made headlines for proposals that include canceling the New International
Airport of Mexico City (NAIM), establishing an economic model based on stabilizing development and revisiting
the implementation of the structural reforms, all of which are contributing to unease in the market. Although the
country’s institutions, such as Banxico, are guarantors of macroeconomic discipline, the uncertainty regarding
the future of the country’s economic system remains.
