  "account": "Mexico's economy grew by 1.4% quarter-over-quarter in the second quarter of 2026, securing the second-highest growth rate among G20 nations, according to President Claudia Sheinbaum. This improvement followed a 0.6% decline in the first quarter. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) upped its growth forecast for Mexico to 1.5% for 2026, from a June estimate of 0.8%. India led the G20 countries with a 1.8% growth rate in the same period. Indonesia and Turkey were the only other members to report sequential growth above 1% in Q2. Mexico's quarter-over-quarter growth rate was twice the G20 average of 0.7%. The U.S. economy expanded by 0.4% during the quarter, while Canada's economy grew by 0.8%. Sheinbaum highlighted Mexico's performance, stating that the country aims to surpass other G20 nations in the upcoming quarters. The OECD also raised its 2026 economic growth forecast for Mexico, predicting 1.8% growth for 2027, driven by a robust tech sector and reduced interest rates. Mexico has experienced robust export growth this year, particularly in AI servers and other electronic equipment, with imports of tech inputs from Taiwan surging. The OECD has also increased its global growth forecast to 2.9% for 2026 and 2.2% for the United States.",
