President Claudia Sheinbaum assessed Mexico's 2027 economic growth prospects during her Wednesday mañanera, stating that the government's proposed budget has five key pillars: economic growth, protecting government priorities, strengthening revenue, more efficient spending, and fiscal discipline. In her remarks, Sheinbaum expressed optimism about the country's potential for growth, citing anticipated "greater stability" in trade relations with the United States.
She also emphasized that the budget proposal does not include any new taxes or fuel price hikes. Finance Minister Édgar Amador Zamora outlined the budget's priorities, including welfare programs, public investment, and more efficient tax collection, while pledging to combat tax evasion.
