Communications, Media and Internet Concentration in Mexico, 2019-2022

This report investigates media ownership and concentration in Mexico, one of the largest media markets in Latin America, from 2019 to 2022. It is part of the Global Media & Internet Concentration Project (GMIC) and focuses on three broad sectors: telecommunications and internet access, online and traditional media services, and core internet sectors. Using the Hirschman Herfindahl Index (HHI) to measure concentration, the report finds that most sectors, particularly Pay TV and Free-to-Air TV, exhibit high levels of concentration. However, some sectors, like radio and fixed telephony, show more moderate concentration levels as reported by the Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT). The goal is to assess whether Mexico's media landscape is becoming more or less concentrated over time.
