Who Sets the Mexican Peso Exchange Rate?
The Mexican Peso (MXN), denoted by the $ symbol, is the official currency of Mexico. Its exchange rate is managed by Banco de México (Banxico), the nation’s central bank, which also oversees the printing and issuance of Mexican banknotes and coins.

The peso operates under a floating exchange rate, meaning its value is determined by global supply and demand. Banxico intervenes when necessary to maintain financial stability. You can sign up for our exchange rate alerts to stay updated on the value of the Mexican currency in real time.
