A post yesterday by Jason Lakin in the Harvard International Review suggests that the economic slowdown in the U.S., which will lead to a drop in remittances to Mexico by migrant workers, falling oil prices, which will put a dent in Pemex’s profits (on which the Mexican Government relies heavily to fund its operations), and the rapid decline in the peso vs. the dollar, which will dramatically increase the cost of Mexican imports, could reduce Mexico’s economic growth in the near term.
