Mexico is the 5th easiest country to do business in Latin America. It’s beaten into 5th place by the economies of Puerto Rico, Chile, Peru and Colombia. Mexico has a strategic location, sharing a border with the USA which brings both opportunities and challenges. It at once benefits from the US as an export market and as result has a buoyant manufacturing sector, but it also suffers from over-reliance on that same market – with more than three-quarters of its exports destined for the USA.
