The American Chamber Mexico (AmCham) warned about the possibility of a negative growth rate in the first quarter of 2021 due to the lack of a fiscal package that encourages economic activity.

Despite this, for this year, the association’s economic advisor, Luis Foncerrada Pascal, estimated that a growth of 3.2% will be achieved, after the 8.5% drop in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2020. However, for the following years, growth rates will not exceed 2%, if there is no vaccination plan and no investments are reactivated.

In this scenario, for 2022 a growth of 1.9% of Mexico’s GDP is expected, a projection that considers a decrease in investment. He explained that if this rate of expansion is maintained, it will take five years to reach the levels of 2019.

«Given that public investment remains at negative levels and private investment does not recover at the rate necessary to grow, especially after 2021, the economy may be destined to advance below 2%,» said Foncerrada Pascal (With information from El Universal Agency).
