25.9% of companies suffer crimes; CFE, for “historic emission

The National Survey of Victimization of Businesses reveals a structural crisis in which extortion has solidified as the primary threat, disproportionately affecting commerce and small- and medium-sized enterprises. This situation creates a vicious cycle: fear of collusion and judicial bureaucracy deter business owners from filing reports, resulting in a massive hidden crime rate and undermining confidence in the justice system, thereby allowing impunity to perpetuate insecurity. This phenomenon is crucial for the field of open data, as it underscores the urgent need to publish accessible, official statistics disaggregated by sector and geography. Without transparent data that accurately reflect the true scale of victimization and case resolution rates, civil society, researchers, and the private sector cannot properly assess the effectiveness of public security policies or identify areas of highest risk. Additionally, information on CFE bond issuance illustrates how financial transparency enables the validation of the solidity of national strategic assets in the eyes of international investors. Together, these reports demonstrate that open data are not merely an administrative exercise, but a vital tool for measuring economic confidence, exposing institutional failures, and facilitating informed decision-making in both security and financial development.
