Mexico is preparing a historic fiscal shield for 2026 for more than $300 billion.

The 2026 Economic Package includes a fiscal and financial buffer of more than $300 billion to ensure macroeconomic stability and mitigate the effects of potential external and internal shocks.

In accordance with the General Criteria of Economic Policy , these resources will act as buffers to strengthen the resilience of public finances in adverse scenarios.

The main mechanisms include:

• International reserves of $244.4 billion.
• Flexible Credit Line with the IMF for $36.6 billion.
• Swap line with the United States Treasury for 9 billion dollars.

These instruments provide access to liquidity in times of international financial stress . However, their activation is not automatic, as each agency assesses the magnitude of the risk and its impact on economic growth and tax revenue.

In addition to international financing, the Mexican government has national funds and insurance totaling 160.171 billion pesos, equivalent to 8.686 billion dollars . These resources seek to protect the country against unexpected drops in tax revenue or economic crises.

Víctor Gómez Ayala, director of economic analysis at Finamex, noted that having these mechanisms provides confidence to investors and stability to the market, as Mexico has the capacity to respond to scenarios of financial volatility.

With this fiscal protection scheme, the country seeks to strengthen economic certainty in a global context marked by slowing trade, exchange rate volatility, and geopolitical risks.

The challenge will be to maintain the trust of international organizations and ensure that these resources are available in the event of a severe shock.
