Mexico
Mexico has suffered its most severe recession since the 1994 currency crisis. Real GDP fell by 9.7% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2009, reflecting lower oil prices and lower exports, the outbreak of influenza and declining tourism revenues and worker remittances. Supported by the rebound in oil prices and increasing exports to the United States, the fall in activity slowed down and activity is now starting to recover. As monetary and fiscal stimulus are gaining traction, the recession is projected to bottom out in the third quarter of 2009 and GDP growth should rise gradually in 2010.
