Mexico stands nowadays
amongst the global emerging frontrunners, and has established
itself as a go-to investment destination sustained by drivers such
as competitive labor costs and multiple free trade agreements.
However, as a result of Donald
Trump's presidency and change in policy direction, there has
been a significant uncertainty concerning the future of Mexican
trade, industry, and growth.

The impending redefinition of the North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA) will play a pivotal role in influencing the
future of Mexico.
''While NAFTA members are presently committed to
renegotiation, the United States
(U.S.) retraction from NAFTA still remains a possibility. Should
the U.S. withdraw, most-favored nation tariffs would be applied to
U.S.-Mexico trade, thereby raising
the cost of trade,'' explains Neha Anna
Thomas, Emerging Market Innovation Senior Economist at
Frost & Sullivan.
''We believe that automotive rules of origin could be one
of the NAFTA renegotiation points. Revised rules mandating higher
content origination in NAFTA countries would be advantageous for
Mexican manufacturing. Renegotiations could however yield different
results,'' adds Lorena Isla,
Latin America Mobility Research Director at Frost &
Sullivan.
The upcoming webinar on Mexico will shed greater light on Mexico's macroeconomic prospects by evaluating
potential US policy changes and resultant implications on
Mexico, while also evaluating
Mexico's economic and industry
outlook.

- Explore potential NAFTA renegotiation topics and
associated implications for Mexican industry and trade.
- Understand the concrete consequences of a possible
U.S. withdrawal from NAFTA.

domestic product's (GDP) growth trajectory in the light of
