Mexico’s Stock Exchanges Confers Strategic Advantages with Robust Disclosure obligations of listed companies in Mexico

Mexico City, September 2025 – Nader, Hayaux & Goebel (NHG) is pleased to announce the publication of the article “ Disclosure obligations of listed companies in Mexico,” authored by partner Jenny Ferrón and associates Roberto de la Vega and Santiago González.

The report provides an in-depth analysis of the benefits of listing on Mexico’s two principal securities exchanges—the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores (BMV) and the Bolsa Institucional de Valores (BIVA)—focusing on how companies can leverage increased liquidity, a broader shareholder base, and enhanced market visibility.

The study emphasizes the comprehensive disclosure obligations mandated by the Securities Market Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores – LMV), the Rules for Issuers issued by the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (CNBV), and the internal rules of the exchanges. These include periodic reports such as annual and quarterly financial statements, as well as the timely disclosure of relevant material events that could influence investor decisions or securities’ market value.

Furthermore, the article explores recent regulatory developments requiring companies to publicly disclose major corporate actions, ownership stakes exceeding 10%, and significant transactions related to mergers or restructurings. The authors highlight how adherence to these transparency protocols fosters investor confidence and mitigates legal and regulatory risks.

The publication also underscores the potential penalties for non-compliance, which range from fines to delisting, reinforcing the importance of robust internal compliance systems for Mexican and foreign issuers operating in the country.

With this analysis, NHG continues to reaffirm its leadership in advising clients on securities regulation, corporate governance, and compliance strategies, supporting organizations in navigating Mexico’s evolving capital markets framework.

NHG Publishes Analysis on Judicial Review of Insurance Contracts: Implications of the Ex Officio Inapplication of Abusive Clauses

Mexico City, September 2025 – Nader, Hayaux & Goebel (NHG) is pleased to announce the publication of the article “Judicial Review of Insurance Contracts: Implications of the Ex Officio Inapplication of Abusive Clauses”, authored by associate Mauricio López and intern Miranda Ibarra. The study addresses the legal implications of the recently published Isolated Thesis 2030525 (June 13, 2025), which expressly recognizes the authority of Mexican courts to identify and disregard abusive clauses in adhesion contracts, particularly in the insurance sector, without the need for consumers to raise such claims at trial.

Adhesion contracts, widely used in the insurance industry, are typically drafted unilaterally by insurers and often impose disproportionate or unbalanced conditions on policyholders. The new judicial criterion, grounded in Article 28 of the Mexican Constitution and aligned with international standards such as EU Directive 93/13/EEC, strengthens consumer protection by empowering judges to intervene proactively.

The article highlights how this development introduces a new layer of responsibility for insurers, requiring them to review and adapt their contractual models to avoid the inclusion of abusive provisions. Proactively adopting clearer and more balanced terms not only enhances legal certainty but also mitigates litigation risks arising from judicial review.

With this analysis, NHG continues to contribute thought leadership on key regulatory and judicial developments affecting the insurance industry in Mexico, reaffirming its position as a leading firm in insurance, regulatory compliance, and dispute resolution.
