The institutional creation and change that gave rise to the trade opening in Mexico was driven by two factors: on the one hand, it was influenced positively by the improvements in efficiency, transparency, organization, information and economic coordination between economic agents, due to the creation and reform of a series of formal institutions (legal, code of practice, regulatory and constitutional norms and reforms); on the other hand, the economic change was not supported by public policies that helped the production facilities to deal with such a profound transformation, such as financial support, industrial conversion, infrastructure and productive supports to companies. Thus economic performance after the trade opening contributed to the configuration of a new pattern of foreign trade with particular characteristics such as the concentration of trading activities in regions, companies, sectors and countries of destination.

Palavras-chave : institutions; economic change; institutional change; trade opening in Mexico.
