However, the central bank castigated the bill, saying it was an affront to its independence, could force it to absorb money from drug gangs, and risked tarnishing Mexico’s reputation with international financial authorities. “If it’s really a problem of 0.7%, then we can resolve it using other mechanisms ... and not necessarily through making changes to the Bank of Mexico’s rules,” he said.Mexico’s economy is forecast to contract by almost 9% this year because of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

“In the year of greatest stress on public finances in the whole world, we’ve been able to stick to the net debt levels Congress approved in October last year when we didn’t even know about COVID-19,” Herrera said.
