Mexico Economic Outlook
June 14, 2022
Revised figures show that the economy expanded 1.0% quarter on quarter in Q1, marginally faster than previously estimated. The reading was driven by a sharp rebound in services activity, likely as the impact of last year’s labor outsourcing ban faded. Industrial output also picked up pace amid increased vehicle production and strong U.S. import demand, while the agricultural sector shrank. In Q2, available data suggests a continued—albeit milder—expansion, as higher inflation and interest rates weigh on activity. Experimental data from the statistics office pointed to a slowdown in economic growth in April due to softer services momentum. Moreover, both the manufacturing and services PMIs declined somewhat in May. However, strong employment and wage growth in the U.S. continues to spur remittances inflows, which should be buttressing consumption.Mexico Economic Growth
In 2022, growth is seen moderating sharply because of higher inflation and interest rates, limp investment due to weak business sentiment, and a much weaker expansion in the U.S.—Mexico’s largest trading partner by far. More positively, higher oil prices will aid government coffers. Disruptions to manufacturing supply chains and a potential hard economic landing in the U.S. are risks. FocusEconomics panelists project the economy to expand 1.9% in 2022, which is down 0.1 percentage points from last month’s forecast. In 2023, they see GDP growth of 2.1%.Mexico Economy Data
