Legal Information
Maquiladora
For many years, manufacturers located in the United
States, as well as in other countries, have resorted to the manufacture or
assembly of their products in countries such as Mexico, which offer
attractive business incentives such as reduced labor costs and tax
abatements.
The Firm can provide assistance on how to establish a “maquiladora”
company (in-bond-processing plant) throughout Mexico. The
article Maquila in Mexico by Gustavo
Brauer provides general information to begin considering whether this
approach is appropriate.
Antitrust
Regulation in Mexico
For many years antitrust regulation in Mexico was not a
major obstacle to businesses, except for a very few of considerable size.
The opening of the Mexican economy during the early 90’s, however, gave
way to a number of investments by foreign entities that set up new
companies or purchased all or substantially all the stock of a
number of Mexican companies that played leading roles in their industry,
and made them grow in such a fashion that local competitors did not have
much of a chance. Thus, Mexico is taking a different view of
antitrust regulation. The artucle Antitrust
Regulation in Mexico by Gustavo Brauer gives an overview of these new
developments.
