  1. Four layers to check before investing in a site in Mexico

    Before investing in a site in Mexico, there are four layers to check: legal, environmental, community and narrative. Law firms handle the first two, and they almost always get reviewed. The other two are settled in the field, and they are the ones that tend to stop a project that had everything in order.
