Mexico will facilitate and support US investments: Marcelo Ebrard

Ebrard stressed that Mexico is more than willing to support investments, especially with its main trading partner.

“Mexico, as you know, is already the main exporter to the United States (…) and soon the main importer to the United States. Our trade flows are unparalleled, on the border with the greatest traffic of goods and people in the world,” said Ebrard.

He added that integration between the two economies has been advancing at a rapid pace, something that will continue in the coming years.

Businessmen and experts warned that with the approval of the judicial reform, foreign investments, mainly from the United States, will be affected, and it is also a risk of a claim for the review of the T-MEC in 2026.

A few days ago, the president of the American Society of Mexico, Larry Rubin, said that they were going to make an important investment announcement during their third Binational Convention, given the uncertainty of the reform.

The American newspaper The Wall Street reported on Sunday that at least $35 billion worth of US companies were held up by the judicial reform.

The United States is the main investor in Mexico, representing around 44% of foreign flows into the country.
