Description
Summary:This paper presents a Detailed Assessment of Mexico's compliance with the Basel Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision and Transparency of Banking Supervision. Fiscal consolidation reduced the gross public debt-to-GDP ratio to below 50 percent, providing the foundations for a monetary policy able to bring inflation down to less than 4 percent, in the context of a floating exchange rate. These improvements have contributed to Mexico's achievement of investment-grade rating, uninterrupted access to capital at low cost, and resilience to shocks, such as the Russian crisis.
