Mexico is usually an attractive country to foreigners, both as a tourist destination and for
work or investment. On the international stage, it offers numerous competitive advantages
that make it appealing to foreign investors.
Throughout 2019, Mexico has been part of the 10 most important countries for foreign
investment, according to PwC’s 22nd Annual Global CEO Survey, Mexico edition. It
advanced from 13th to 9th place with 4% of responses, partially due to countries such as
Canada, Hong Kong, Japan and Russia falling some places.
