The banking scene in Mexico was shaken this Tuesday after Citigroup's announcement about its exit from the consumer banking business in that country, which would mean that it would put Banamex, one of the most recognized and used banks by Mexicans, up for sale.
This announcement is part of a strategic renewal of the financial giant globally, according to a Citi statement.
In Aristegui, the editorial director of the newspaper El Economista, Luis Miguel González, and José Luis de la Cruz Gallegos, director of the Institute for Industrial Development and Economic Growth, comment on what this decision means for the Mexican economy and who could buy the brand Banamex.
