PESTLE Analysis of Mexico 2016
The Mexican economy is dominated by the service sector, which contributed approximately 63% to the total GDP in 2015. The major contributors of the service sector are financial institutions and real estate, public administration, and social activities. The GDP growth rate of Mexico was hampered by the global financial crisis and recession in 2009, and it declined to negative 4.7%; however, the Mexican economy had managed to recover with a growth rate of 5.1% in 2010. The growth was driven by a dynamic external demand and domestic demand. The country’s strategic location and supportive governmental policies strengthen the industrial activities.
