Mexico Investment: The New Vogue

What with flu bugs and sensationalized press headlines about the drug war along the U.S. border, Mexico was in danger of slipping out of investment fashion.

But as we move out of the summer season and start looking at what’s new for this fall, it’s clear that Mexico investment is becoming the new vogue.

The beginning of August saw the press full of reports about big international companies making equally big investments in Mexico and others strengthening their business commitments.

Banks and financial service providers, such as Fitch and Morgan Stanley, have also given their thumbs up for a wide range of Mexico investment opportunities.

For the savvy emerging market investor, none of this should be such a surprise.

The global economy is showing signs of improvement, so this is exactly when you’d expect to see foreign cash starting to look for investment opportunities with higher returns.

So when wise market players, JP Morgan, decided to rate Mexico as their top pick for Latin American equities last month, eyes started to train themselves south of the border, seeking out the autumn season’s stylish new offering in Mexico investment.

Others that like what they see on the Mexico investment catwalk include Coca-Cola — who announced a $5 billion investment in Mexico over the next 5 years — and Spanish banking giant, Santander, who has invested $190 million in a new customer contact and service center in Queretaro, Mexico.

Other fashion-junkies joining the trend include General Motors — completing a Mexico investment of more than $1 million in a new customer service center — and British bank, HSBC — raising its recommendation for Mexican shares to “increase portfolio”.

The modish trend looks set to continue and expect more big names to jump into Mexico investment opportunities as the fall season moves into winter. Whether investing in Mexico businesses or real estate , this may be one hip new emerging market show that you don’t want to miss.
