Mexico Corporate Security 2015 Forum

Mexico is currently undergoing major reforms to the energy, telecommunications, education, and financial sectors and the Government expects $50 billion of investment by 2018 in the wake of these reforms. This boost in the economy will create many jobs and rejuvenate the economy, but this huge potential is underscored by serious security risks.
 
While overall geopolitical risk in Mexico is low, and current commercial potential is very high, cartel-related violence and other criminal activities continue to draw concern from international companies and potential foreign investors. Homicide, kidnapping, extortion, attacks on facilities, and organized public unrest challenge regional governance and have the potential to impact a number of stages of the value chain.
 
Companies wanting to benefit from the huge investment opportunities offered by Mexico must ensure their corporate security is thoroughly evaluated, planned and executed holistically, and with the involvement of National Security Services, to ensure the safety, security and commerciality of their operations in Mexico.
