In the first half of 2024, Mexico's private sector made 143 public announcements with a projected foreign investment of $45.464 billion. This adds to the $110.744 billion reported in 2023, according to the Ministry of Economy's monitoring activities from January 1 to June 30, 2024.

These announcements highlight not only the substantial investment figures but also the creation of 62,940 new jobs. This surge in foreign investment reflects the private sector's keen interest in Mexico’s robust economic landscape.
