        Mexican officials urged safety and stability in private investment in the country on Tuesday, following a bilateral summit with business leaders in which fears about constitutional reforms dominated the agenda.
        
        Companies such as Amazon, Mexico Pacific, Royal Caribbean and Woodside Energy are set to make significant investments in the country in the next year, Economy Ministry Marcelo Ebrard said.
        
        Close to 250 executives attended the summit, held annually but of particular importance this year in the first weeks of President Claudia Sheinbaum's administration.
        
        "The messages from President Sheinbaum were certainty, assuredness," Ebrard said. "Investments in Mexico are safe. We're going to work so trade in the region keeps growing."
