18/02/2022 - The OECD will present a new Economic Survey of Mexico on Monday 21 February. The Survey examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Mexico’s economy and challenges ahead. It discusses how Mexico could reinforce its macroeconomic policies and reforms that could lift investment and increase productivity. A special chapter takes an in-depth look at how expanding access to finance could boost growth and improve equality of opportunities.
