HLED: Better Late Than Never, But No Time to Waste

Introduction

This week the United States and Mexico will revive the High Level Economic Dialogue (HLED or the Dialogue) with a day of meetings on September 9 in Washington, DC. Initiated during the Obama administration in 2013 but suspended by President Trump, the HLED offers a unique opportunity for a strategic rethinking of bilateral economic and strategic relations that can position North America to better compete in the world economy and take advantage of global economic opportunities. This newsletter will take stock of the current status of U.S.-Mexico relations and of opportunities offered by the global economy, highlight the importance of the HLED reboot in this context, and offer policy guidance for the Dialogue and its participants.
