HR Ratings recognizes responsible fiscal strategies
The ratification of the ‘HR AAA’ rating is due to federal support of Mexico City’s debt obligations, accompanied by a growing surplus on the Primary Balance and a sustainable level of indebtedness. The rating agency highlighted the positive behavior of freely available income, driven by strengthened tax strategies and the improvement of collection systems.
Key measures include gradual updates to cadastral information, which have optimized tax revenues. “Continuity in these strategies has allowed us to maintain a stable outlook,” highlighted HR Ratings.
