Well that must have been written by either a lawyer or a politician. Does that really mean that you can now deposit $4,000 US or $48,000 Pesos in
your Mexican bank account.bajajudy - 12-7-2010 at 08:02 AM

It's an on-line "newspaper". Reports on local activities and events.
Key point: the changes were announced on Friday, but are not yet legal until they get published in the official gazette.
Doesn't affect private customers of banks, as it's only the US$ exchange limit for border businesses that is being raised from $7k to $14k/month.
Limit on purchases rising from $100 to $250.
