IJR News — today's news from every sideMexico plans national security screening for foreign investments in key tech sectors — 2dMexico is pushing a reform to the Foreign Investment Law to create a formal national-security review for foreign acquisitions above 49% in strategic sectors such as energy, AI, semiconductors, data management and cybersecurity, with the Defense Ministry, Navy and Security Ministry joining the National Foreign Investment Commission and penalties as high as 200,000 times the UMA for noncompliance.
