Investment analysts positive on Mexico growth

The new provision is “symbolic” more than anything else, Fernando Losada, a Latin America economist at AllianceBernstein LP, said in a telephone interview from New York. “It’s very hard to envision a scenario in which Mexico is going to have a problem down the road.”
Economic growth in Mexico, which sends about 80 percent of its exports to the U.S., will accelerate to about 5 percent starting in 2016 as President Enrique Pena Nieto’s changes to oil and telecommunications laws kick in, according to government forecasts.
“Our positive outlook on Mexico is predicated on the raising of potential growth,” Fidelity’s Hagerty said. “But also just looking at its trade and financial ties to the U.S. and putting it in the context with our outlook for global growth for the U.S., Mexico is on the verge here of being able to benefit.”
