The Mexico Fund, Inc. has filed its definitive proxy statement for its Annual Meeting on March 10, 2026. A key proposal involves the election of two Class III Directors. Notably, current Chairman Emilio Carrillo Gamboa, who has served for an extended period, and Jonathan Davis Arzac, another long-serving director, will not stand for re-election. David M. Satterfield and Claudia Jañez (currently a Class I Director) are nominated to fill these positions, which will result in a reduction of the board size from seven to six directors. The departure of the Chairman and a long-standing director represents a significant change in board leadership and composition. Other aspects of the filing, such as the re-appointment of the independent auditor and details on advisory fees, are routine disclosures for an annual proxy statement.
