Remittances at $24 billion for 2007 were the largest source of foreign currency for Mexico. In 2007 foreign companies invested $23.2 billion to build factories or setup businesses in Mexico. Mexican growth estimates were cut by the central bank from 3.25% to 2.75%. The $24 billion in remittances is almost the same as 2006 as remittances were slowing down because of fewer jobs in construction for lower paid Mexicans. Tighter border security also means fewer people coming in from Mexico.
