Doing business and  investing in Mexico is much the same as in many other countries, however, it  would be unwise to make assumptions concerning local risks and rewards without  proper analysis and seeking expert local advice. There are large numbers of excellent accounting and law firms, headhunters, banks, brokers and chambers of  commerce which can provide the potential investor with important and necessary help.

2. Emilio Azcárraga Jean, US$ 3 billions, head of TV Televisa
