  "account": "Societe Generale's Dev Ashish reports that Mexico's central bank, Banxico, maintained its policy rate at 6.50% in its latest decision. The bank signaled an extended pause in rate cuts as Mexico's inflation remains near the target and real rates are close to neutral. Banxico expects inflation to converge to its target by the fourth quarter of 2027. The bank's decision to keep rates on hold is influenced by external risks, including oil price volatility driven by Middle East tensions and a potentially hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve. Banxico reiterated its guidance for an extended pause in policy rate adjustments.",
