Mexico's Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, together with the European Union, published a comparative report assessing how Mexico’s Sustainable Taxonomy (TSM) and the European Union’s Green Taxonomy align, with the aim of giving international investors clearer guidance on what qualifies as sustainable activity in each jurisdiction. The report highlights shared principles and core climate objectives, including mitigation and adaptation, and notes the use of similar metrics and thresholds that support interoperability and greater financial transparency. The analysis maps areas of convergence and difference to help mobilise capital across jurisdictions, reduce operational costs, and strengthen sustainable finance flows. While both frameworks share a common methodology for developing technical screening criteria, Mexico’s taxonomy is distinguished by integrating social criteria, including a gender equality objective. The work is framed as part of the European Union’s Global Gateway investment strategy, which targets mobilisation of more than EUR 300 billion, and the report is made available through Mexico’s Sustainable Finance Platform.
