Its objective is to increase social welfare and investment levels. It is a positive step toward boosting Mexico’s competitiveness. 3

4. Mexico’s railway regulation: the concession In 1997 the Federal Government decided to create concessions to exploit railroad lines, with the objective of having a solid growth in this sector. KCSM has the concession for the northeast route towards Laredo. KCSM has invested over 3 billion dollars in the concession title and on the maintenance of our network, infrastructure, and equipment. 4

5. KCSM investments: urban profit KCSM has invested in railroad terminals and in urban overpasses. These investments have a positive impact in urban communities. 5
