Crime costs Mexican businesses 115,000 billion pesos in 2025
Mexican businesses incur significant costs due to insecurity, allocating more than half of these expenses to preventive measures. Although the figures show slight declines, the overall situation remains stable, with no statistically significant changes compared to previous years. Most crimes go unreported due to distrust in the authorities and the complexity of the procedures. This high rate of impunity reflects structural flaws in the justice system that discourage businesses from formally filing complaints. This report highlights the urgency of improving judicial transparency and efficiency to reduce barriers to reporting. In the context of open data, these findings underscore the need for accurate data on impunity to design effective public policies and strengthen accountability.
