ANDRÉS MANUEL LÓPEZ OBRADOR, President of Mexico
“The pension reform that we are proposing seeks to ensure that workers can leave with 100% of their last salary, that is, with a solidarity supplement for all those who earn or retire with the average salary of the Social Security Institute. It is planned to finance with the resources of the autonomous organizations that are planned to disappear, as well as with the extinction of the trusts of the Judicial Branch.”
CARLOS RAMÍREZ, is director of Consar
“The President proposes reaching a pension of around 16 thousand pesos that will apply only to the Afore generation. This is important, because it somewhat limits the cost of said reform because it will not apply to the workers of the old regime. The underlying question, and the most important one, is whether this fund is really enough; 64 billion pesos is not enough at all. Public finances no longer have any room for maneuver to finance another fund.”
COPARMEX, statement
“Any proposal to reform the pension system, such as the one that the federal Executive intends to present, must consider serious actuarial, administrative, accounting and financial studies so that an analysis of viability and benefits can be made based on this. We will be waiting to understand what its real scope would be, how it will be financed, as well as the risks and advantages of its eventual implementation.”
CLARA BRUGADA, candidate of the Morena-PT-PVEM alliance for the Government of CDMX
“We offer that people from the age of 57 receive a pension as a Minimum Living Income, although currently older adults are eligible for universal support from the age of 68. “We will also provide subsidies for each minor, from birth and during the first thousand days of life, that is, until almost three years old.”
XÓCHITL GÁLVEZ, candidate of the Broad Front for Mexico for the Presidency
“One of our priorities in the regular period of sessions in the Senate will be to promote a constitutional reform so that the pension for older adults is provided from the age of 60 in the poorest communities of the country, where the indigenous people live and which According to Coneval, extreme poverty increased there.”
CLAUDIA SHEINBAUM, candidate of the Morena-PT-PVEM alliance for the Presidency
“It is necessary that this support (from the Welfare pensions) reaches more people, those aged 60 and 64, many of them do not have support, they do not have jobs, and therefore we have to involve them in social charitable programs.”
GABRIELA SILLER, Director of Economic Analysis at Grupo Financiero BASE
“There is nothing positive about this reform that the president intends to promote, due to the risks that it entails for public finances, because the government wants to contribute, so it means that it has to give money and right now, there is no fiscal space for anything. The ideal is to make voluntary savings, but unfortunately Mexico lacks a lot of financial culture, among several issues, one that has to do with low levels of income and high levels of labor informality.
