Overview

  • The Chamber of Deputies formally received the 149‑page infrastructure investment bill and a separate reform to Article 141 of the Federal Fiscal Code.
  • The proposal opens direct, indirect, or mixed private participation in strategic projects via new investment coordination vehicles, including companies, trusts, and market instruments.
  • Projects could receive backing from public financial tools such as the National Infrastructure Fund to lower risk, ease financing, and trigger investment.
  • Executives from HSBC México, Santander México, Barclays México, Invex, and Ve por Más welcomed the plan as attractive for investors and banks and said it could help expand SME lending.
  • The government projects 5.6 trillion pesos for infrastructure through public and mixed schemes; coverage suggests approval before the ordinary session ends, while bankers stress implementation and a solid project pipeline as next hurdles.
