Mexico considers adjusting tax overhaul

Thursday, October 10, 2013


Mexico's government is willing to adjust parts of a proposed tax overhaul that aims to boost the country's poor tax take.

The government will revise unpopular levies on schooling and mortgages, said the head of the ruling PRI party.

President Enrique Peña Nieto aims to raise Mexico's anemic tax take by around $35 billion by 2018 as part of a wider economic reform agenda that aims to boost economic growth.
