Global #Trends by BBVA: How does economic activity move during an event that connects the world?

Beyond the game

During the World Cup, Mexico became a meeting point for visitors, businesses and markets from around the world. Events of this scale do more than attract international attention: they accelerate commercial activity, increase cross-border payments and create new operational needs for companies across a wide range of sectors.


Behind this momentum lies a network of payments, collections, transfers and financing solutions that enables businesses to remain active and respond to a more demanding environment. In this context, Global Transaction Banking plays an important role in supporting secure and efficient connections between companies, institutions and markets.


This episode explores the economic dimension beyond the event and how robust financial infrastructure can help support business continuity and growth.
