This was however not the case in other emerging markets such as Brazil, Chile, South Africa and Turkey who saw sufficient productivity growth to boost their incomes level. Mexico still displays a high level of poverty in international comparison. Among OECD countries for example, poverty rates were the second highest in Mexico (after Israel), with a relative poverty rate at 20.4 in 2010 (OECD, 2014c). This means that one in every five Mexicans was poor, compared to just above one in ten on average across OECD countries.
