Economy
Mexico has one of the largest economies in Latin America and the world, a major manufacturing power deeply integrated with the United States through trade and supply chains, especially in automobiles and electronics.
As a hub for 'nearshoring' — firms relocating production closer to the US — Mexico has gained from shifting global supply chains, though it contends with inequality, informality, and the violence of organized crime.
Key sectors include manufacturing and exports (automobiles, electronics, and appliances, much of it for the US), oil, agriculture, remittances from Mexicans abroad, and a large tourism industry.
