Food, energy and water will rise 25% this year

MEXICO, DF - The Faculty of Economics, National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) predicts that during 2011 the price of food and the government-run services (water, electricity , gas, gasoline) will increase from 20 to 25 percent, which represents one of the greatest risks to the recovery of the national economy. In presenting the quarterly analysis of the university, Eduardo Loria, CEMD coordinator, said this year the Mexican economy faces several risks to its recovery, so that the forecast growth of 6 percent probably will not be achieved.

The university said that the growth of the country's economy will be between 3.9 and 4.2 percent, far from the federal official forecast. Loria said there are three other risk factors for Mexican economic recovery: rising interest rates, which will generate possible moves and the country's capital outflows, the slow pace of European debt solution and the multiple effects on the world economy, such as the natural disaster in Japan.
