Is it the threat of risk scenarios going forward in this new world?

Unlikely!

Is it a downward revision of the baseline global outlook?

Not likely yet!

Probably! Uncertainty about China (growth, rebalancing and FX policy) and persistently low oil prices raise the risk of second round effects (higher vulnerabilities in corporates affecting banks and sovereigns, especially in the oil sector) that could become self-fulfilling.

Global Economic Scenario / 28 January 2016

Where are we? Mexico has built a solid framework for macroeconomic stability in the past 20 years. It has helped to differentiate the country form other EM´s in these times of global turbulence, which does not mean that it is immune to the volatility.

However, the growth track-record has been poor. This is a consequence of stagnant productivity

Recent reforms will help with this, but‌

Other reforms are needed, especially on Rule of Law, for the country to exploit its full potential Page 35
