Enrique Pe?a Nieto was elected the new president of Mexico on July 1. This marked the return of his Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), which was in power for 71 years before being voted out in 2000.

Mexican voters will be hoping Pe?a Nieto can boost the economy and tackle the challenge of Mexico?s drug cartels. Efforts under Felipe Calder?n?s National Action Party to crack down on the cartels only served to increase violent crime and kidnappings in previously peaceful areas.

The country?s insurers will also hope the new government can do something about the industry?s growth problem.
