MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Monday rolled out her administration’s roadmap to make the nation one of the world’s top economies by the time she leaves office.
Mexico, currently the No. 12 economy according to World Bank data, aims to crack the Top 10 by 2030, Sheinbaum said.
The nation will do so by boosting local manufacturing and swapping out imports, creating manufacturing jobs and cutting through red tape to attract investments in the country, Sheinbaum said.
The business-friendly agenda represents a shift in tone from Sheinbaum’s predecessor and mentor, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who left office in October and often tussled with private firms.
