A few economists are outlining scenarios in which Mexico could emerge as an unlikely winner in the brewing debate over NAFTA. The discussion takes place against a backdrop of Mexican growth that’s less than stellar, but has beaten some of the more dire predictions about how the country could fare as the Trump era takes shape.
Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, told CNBC in an interview:
“The Mexican economy has its problems, but it has arguably been the best-performing Latin American economy in recent years… It has become less dependent on the ups and downs in oil prices, and more integrated into the global supply chain.”
