Chapter 7 in Foreign Direct Investment in Russia, 2000, pp 241-271 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Mexico, whose population will reach 100 million by the year 2000, is by far the most populated Spanish-speaking country in the world. In the Americas, it ranks third after the United States (270 million) and Brazil (160 million). Its total land area (almost 2 million sq. km) is the fourth largest after the United States, Brazil and Argentina. Mexico shares a common border of about 3100 km with the United States, its largest trading and investment partner, and its geographic proximity to the United States, the world’s leading economy, is Mexico’s most important location-specific asset for attracting inward FDI.
