Luis Felipe Alcántara Pozos, an expert from RCPH Services, noted a slowdown in investment announcements.

This year, the same period saw announcements drop to $30 billion.

Political uncertainty from electoral processes in both countries has caused this trend. Experts predict this moderation will continue until the elected U.S. president's policies become clear. The situation highlights the impact of political events on economic decisions.



These investment promises show Mexico's potential as a business destination. However, the gap between announcements and actual investments raises questions. It underscores the need for a stable political and economic environment to turn promises into reality.



The coming months will be crucial for Mexico's economic landscape. The country's ability to convert these promises into concrete investments will shape its economic future. Observers will watch closely to see how political developments influence investor confidence.
