The Mexican economy is largely composed of private sector, due to mass privatization of state enterprises mostly in the 80s of last century to overcome the economic crisis. For the most part the former state-owned enterprises in Mexico are owned by foreign companies.

Mexico is the largest exporter of oil in its region. Currently most of the country’s revenues are generated in the oil sector. However, despite this, the main source of income for Mexico is the service sector.

Although Mexico has huge oil and gas reserves, its natural hydrocarbons are strongly depleted. This makes the government to reduce the amount of extracted oil and natural gas in order to avoid new problems in the economy. According to the forecasts, with such a policy, Mexico will soon be forced to import oil from abroad, to meet the needs of its economy. All these circumstances have a significant impact on the currency of Mexico, which is largely dependent on world oil prices, which are formed in global financial markets. In addition, the Mexican peso exchange rate is highly dependent on international ranking of the country, which is based on complex economic formulas calculated by major rating agencies.
