Latin American currencies strengthened on Friday on a tentative rebound in risk appetite ahead of the inauguration of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump.
The Mexican peso strengthened 1 percent but still hovered near an all-time low touched earlier this month.
Traders warned of potential volatility later in the day as Trump delivers his inauguration speech.
Trump's campaign promises to break with trade accords with Mexico have hammered the currency over the past months.

On Friday, rising oil prices also helped lift Latin American currencies, with the Colombian peso 0.6 percent stronger.
