The dollar affects our daily lives and the pockets of Mexicans.

In 2025, the exchange rate started at 20.85 pesos per dollar and is currently around 18.65 pesos, which represents a strengthening of the peso against the US currency.

The changes directly impact imported products, such as corn, rice, potatoes, and bread, which could increase by up to 9%, as well as gasoline, whose price is determined in international markets by adding taxes and transportation costs.

Furthermore, Mexico is one of the main recipients of remittances, but immigration policies in the United States have reduced the flow of money to families.

On the other hand, the "nearshoring" phenomenon has allowed some companies to export more, establishing operations in Mexico to reduce costs.

Expert Raquel Alvarado Cabrera recommends against using the exchange rate as a savings strategy, except for those who spend money in dollars. It's best to set clear financial goals and avoid risks at unregulated exchange offices.

The value of the dollar against the peso depends on economic and political stability and interest rates.

Unexpected government decisions or changes to the USMCA generate uncertainty, weakening the peso. The Bank of Mexico and the U.S. Federal Reserve have a direct influence by setting rates that guide investments.

When the peso strengthens against the dollar, it's perceived as good news for the economy, although Alvarado warns that there are many variables to consider.

To protect your wallet, he recommends comparing prices, prioritizing domestic products, and ensuring that companies have staff trained to make smart financial decisions.

In short, the dollar affects us all, but with information and informed decisions, it can also generate savings and investment opportunities.
