Staying safe in Mexico
A Message from KPMG Global Security
Street crime is the principal risk for business travelers to Mexico City. All visitors should take personal measures to avoid being victimized. It is particularly important to exercise caution during hours of darkness as this is when muggings and robberies escalate. We recommend that everyone use pre-arranged ground transportation for any movements to activities outside the hotel.
Please take the following personal precautions:
- Maintain a low profile outside the hotel and do not carry anything in plain view that might be considered of value to a criminal (mobile devices, expensive jewelry, etc.).
- Upon arrival to your room, familiarize yourself with the hotel’s emergency exit locations and evacuation routes.
- Use prearranged ground transportation through the hotel or event support team.
- Always carry a copy of your ID and passport/visa with you.
- Ensure your mobile device is sufficiently charged before leaving the hotel.
- Travel in pairs or groups rather than alone when exploring outside the hotel.
- Use ATM machines inside the hotel or a bank and avoid any street-facing terminals.
- Chip-based debit/credit cards are recommended for electronic transactions, as card theft as well as skimming is a concern. Criminals have been reported to use magnetic strip readers. Bringing some cash is ideal, since not all credit cards may be accepted.
- Exercise vigilance if visiting popular night clubs and entertainment areas as they are locations with higher crime rates.
- In case of emergency, business travelers should contact their Embassy rather than the police, who tend to be inefficient and corrupt. The police may demand bribes in the form of dubious fines. If you do utilize the services of local police, do so with the assistance of a local business or hotel contact or International SOS – police can be reached by dialing 911.
- Area Note: The central area is dangerous at night, including the Zocalo and the streets around it as far as the Palacio de Bellas Artes concert hall. Foreign nationals should avoid areas to the east and south of the Zocalo after dark, including both sides of the Eje Central Lazaro Cárdenas thoroughfare. Plaza Garibaldi, popular with tourists, is also unsafe and crime is common. However, robberies occur even in upmarket districts such as Polanco, Condesa, Lomas, Del Valle and Roma, though these tend to take place after dark.
- The suburbs of Ecatepec, Naucalpan, Tlalnepantla, Cuautitlan and Nezahualcoyotl should be avoided at all times due to high levels of crime. The Tepito neighbourhood is known to have high organised crime activity. The neighbourhoods of Cuautepec, Lomas de Plateros, Padierna, Doctores, Moctezuma, Iztapalapa, Tacubaya, Anahuac, Gustavo A Madero, Tlahuacand and Olivar de los Padres are also considered dangerous.
Information Security Measures
- Avoid connecting to public wi-fi connections. If you must do so, use your VPN and select the “Always-Tunnel” option from the Group dropdown.
- Ensure all software, including anti-virus protection and any security patches, are up to date prior to travel. Do not update software while away.
- Turn off Wi-fi and Bluetooth when not in use.
- When you return home, consider changing passwords on accounts that you’ve accessed if you suspect any issues. Also monitor your financial statements for fraudulent charges.
Reporting Incidents
- KPMG partners and employees should contact International SOS 24/7 at +1-215-942-8226 in the event of an urgent medical or security situation requiring support.
- KPMG partners and employees should download the IntlSOS Assistance app onto your smart phone prior to travel. Visit app.internationalsos.com from your smartphone’s browser or go to your phone’s app store and search for “International SOS”. When you first start the app, use your KPMG email address to register. You may be asked to enter KPMG’s membership number, which is 1CPA1111.
