In brief: Mexico
* Mexico’s finance minister, José Antonio González Anaya, has said that based on preliminary figures Mexico’s GDP increased by 1.8% in the fourth quarter of 2017, the 32nd consecutive quarter of positive economic growth. González hailed the result, noting that this is the longest positive quarterly growth streak in Mexico’s history, making it one of the “most prosperous emerging economies in the world”. González also highlighted that this growth has come despite the fact that Mexico’s economy has faced some significant external economic challenges in the past five years such as weak economic growth in the US, the fall in international oil prices, and the uncertainty surrounding the future of the North American Free Trade Agreement (Nafta).
