Countries such as Colombia, Brazil and Chile have currently worked on laws that regulate technology companies such as Bitso. Argentina is discussing a bill on the requirements that crypto asset companies must meet. The regulation in the countries also occurred in the context of the bankruptcy -in 2022- of FTX, a crypto asset management firm, which caused a collapse in the value of bitcoin. Bitso, which was born in 2014, operates in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and Brazil and has six million users in the region.

From then until January 30, 2023, the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights recorded more than 7,000 deaths and 11,500 injuries among men, women and children, in addition to the 8 million refugees in Western Europe, a balance that promises to escalate in the face of a stagnant war that has not shown a clear forcefulness of the parties. Precisely, the West doubles the bet in a warm winter: supplying the German and American Leopard 2 and Abrams tanks, those that can change the balance of forces on the battlefield and unbalance the Russian adversary with potential…

Subjacent inflation –considered a better parameter of inflation in the long term, by excluding the most volatile prices- grew 0.71% at a monthly rate and 8.45% at an annual rate, which was also above estimates, as the market expected an increase of 8.41% per year.

4. “The least worst” and the compensations Some environmental claims may refer to characteristics that are generally true, but are intended to distract consumers from larger environmental impacts in the category as a whole. This type of greenwashing It’s not that different from irrelevance, but it can be even more complex and pernicious because it tries to clean up the image of a product by comparing it or putting it in context with something else. For example, a product that offers to plant a tree for every certain volume sold, the product being highly harmful to the environment. It is…

It is possible to make an apparently minor precision but, in my opinion, key: it is not the same to say “we are reaching the top” to think that “we are close to the peak”. The latter assumes that rates can drop as fast as they went up, restoring the financial boom after a difficult 2022. In the opinion of this writer, neither likely nor desirable. In fact, from a fundamental perspective, it would be terribly worrisome. Like any other price, the price of money (which is the interest rate) is determined by supply and demand. Since 2008 there has…

Another point to consider is the lack of regulation that makes it difficult for investors to assess the legitimacy of a specific project.

The oil company kept the operations of the pipeline, which supplies the Monterrey metropolitan area and some surrounding municipalities with gasoline from the United States, paralyzed for almost four years, after it decided to close it during the first months of the six-year term. But now, three months after putting it into operation, the state company reports losses of around 50% of what it transports in the asset, according to the sources. The oil company transports around 4,000 barrels of gasoline per day import to the Cadereyta storage terminal. The sources explain that about half of the fuel is stolen…
