Mexico is speeding up a countrywide liberalization of fuel prices by a month in a bid to kick-start lagging private investment.
Mexico’s energy regulatory commission, CRE, approved on Thursday bringing forward an end to government-set pump prices in the southeastern zone comprised of Campeche, Quintana Roo and the Yucatan. Mexico will freely float prices by Nov. 30 in the rest of the country.
