Mexico economic development is high on agenda of Barack Obama as he wants number of illegal immigrants in USA to go down. One way of achieving this, according to him, is to help with economic development of Mexico.

Among higher levels of Mexico governance it is believed that in 2009 exports of Mexico to USA would come down to round about 80 percent of what they were in 2008. This is supposed to have a serious impact on economic development of Mexico. Much of this could be attributed to present global economic conditions.

Antonio Oscar Garza Jr. who is working in capacity of American ambassador at Mexico is optimistic that world financial crunch of 2009 would not affect long term potential for economic development in Mexico.

An important aspect of economic development in Mexico is making sure that flow of labor stays uninterrupted in northern region. Flow of capital to southern region of Mexico has to be kept steady as well so that national economy keeps functioning.

Much of economic development at Mexico hinges on reforms that are to be put to effect in energy sector. These reforms are supposed to address various critical issues within Mexican economic system.

As far as labor force of Mexico is concerned, immigration is a matter of major concern – one that can actually hurt Mexico’s economic development. This is a matter that is being discussed at higher levels at both Mexico and United States of America for some years now and a workable solution is still to be arrived at by these two parties.

Mexico economic development has also been helped to a great extent by various free trade agreements it has signed over years. In this respect North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA has benefited it to a significant extent.

As per economic predictions, 2009 is going to be a detrimental year as far as Mexico economic development is concerned. Much of this would be as a result of falling demand of petroleum and related goods throughout this year.

Manufacturing exports are also supposed to come down in 2009. This would be hugely significant in diminishing prospects of Mexico economic growth. Prices raw materials have been taking a turn for worse and this is a bad omen for economic development of Mexico.
