Mexico: remittances – Sequentially low in March, but still with a positive trend
Remittances reached US$4,680.6 million, close to our call and consensus, and up 12.6% y/y
Sequentially, inflows dropped 2.1% m/m, surprising to the downside despite a strong US economy and labor market
We maintain our positive view for remittances, albeit with risks from inflation, the Fed’s hiking cycle, and migration
