The basic objective of this article is to identify the priority issues that could influence Mexico’s long-term economic growth path, and to outline a balanced action program necessary to effectively address these issues. It includes reforms and actions that would simultaneously achieve much higher and more inclusive growth, and would thus restore the sense of pride and optimism among Mexicans that has been eroding in recent years. The issues discussed are of such importance that the legacy of the next presidency could be determined by the administration’s willingness and ability to implement the agenda outlined in this article.
