Mexico’s on-exchange trading is split between BMV and smaller rival BIVA, with transactions subject to “best execution” rules — requirements intended to route orders to the venue offering the best result — Baker McKenzie noted.

For Grupo BMV shares, investors typically watch signals that point to sustained volume, not just a one-day burst: moves in the peso, changes in rate expectations and demand for hedging in derivatives markets. Any pickup in equity issuance or bond activity can also support expectations for transaction and listing revenue.
