Larry Fink also met separately this Wednesday with the presidential candidates, Xóchitl Gálvez and Claudia Sheinbaum.
“It is always a pleasure to talk with Larry Fink because not only is he the president and director of one of the most important investment funds in the world, but he is also an intelligent man who few know is a political scientist by profession,” said president Andrés Manuel López Obrador in a message spread on his social networks, in which he showed a photo of the meeting he had this Thursday with the director of the most important global investment manager in the world.
The last time the president and the most influential man on Wall Street met was almost a year ago, on March 23, 2023. That meeting took place in a forum called “Entrepreneurial Fathers and Sons.”
The next day, López Obrador said that the magnate considered that Mexico will become a “power with a social dimension.”
He also commented that Fink saw “a good environment for investment” and that Mexico is one of the countries in the world with the most advantages for foreign investment because it has a Trade Agreement and this allows what is produced in Mexico to be exported to United States and Canada. “That’s why a lot of investments are coming.”
The first meeting between Fink and the man from Tabasco occurred on May 11, 2022, said meeting was held in the National Palace on the eve of negotiations for electricity self-supply.
On Thursday, February 22, the Californian businessman had a separate meeting with the presidential candidates Claudia Sheinbaum and Xóchitl Gálvez.
About this meeting Sheinbaum Pardo said in his X account that they talked “about the Mexican moment” and he thanked him very much for his visit.
For his part, Gálvez similarly stated in his X account that it was a “great meeting.”
Galvez stated: “When you invest the pension funds of thousands of workers you have the great responsibility of doing so in countries that respect their own laws and comply with their international agreements. To build the country we dream of, we need to regain trust in Mexico,”
