Mexican peso FAQ
Mexican Peso (MXN) is the most trading currency among its Latin American peers. Its value is broadly determined by the demonstration of the Mexican economy, the country’s central bank policy, the volume of foreign investment in the country and the level of remittances sent by the Mexico dwellers, which live abroad, especially in the United States. Geophysical trends can also move MXN: For example, some firms decide the decision -making process to transfer manufacturing capacity and supply chains close to their domestic countries – the process of deciding by some firms – is also seen as a catalyst for Mexican currency as the country is considered a major manufacturing center in the American continent. Another catalyst for MXN is oil prices as Mexico is a major exporter of commodity.
The main objective of the Central Bank of Mexico, also known as Bannico, maintains inflation at low and stable levels (close to its target of 3%or close to a tolerance band between 2%and 4%, in the middle point). To end this, the bank determines a reasonable level of interest rates. When inflation is very high, Banusico will try to increase the interest rates to control it, making it more expensive to borrow money for homes and businesses, thus the demand for cooling and cooling the overall economy. High interest rates for Mexican peso (MXN) are usually positive because they cause high yields, making the country a more attractive place for investors. Conversely, the low interest rate weakens MXN.
Macroeconomic data releases are important for assessing the status of the economy and can affect the Mexican peso (MXN) evaluation. A strong Mexican economy is good for MXN based on high economic growth, low unemployment and high confidence. Not only does it attract more foreign investment, but it can encourage the Bank of Mexico to increase interest rates, especially if this strength comes with elevated inflation. However, if economic data is weak, MXN is likely to depreciate depreciation.
As an emerging market currency, the Mexican Peso (MXN) goes to strive during the risk-period, or when investors feel that broad market risks are low and thus eager to engage with investments that take a high risk. In contrast, MXN weakens in the time of market disturbance or economic uncertainty as investors do to sell high-risk property and escape for more safe havens.
