Mexico prepaid its dollar bond due 2025 with an outstanding amount of $894mn, as part of its $4bn refinancing being conducted this year. This comes amid the sweeping victory of President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum and the Morena Party earlier this month. Following the election, Bloomberg notes that investors were concerned that the government may quickly move forward with reforms that are perceived to weaken the power of institutions.
