Dealing with bureaucracy is a nightmare; it can take Kavak days to process a transaction in Mexico, compared with under 40 minutes in Brazil.

与官僚机构打交道是一场噩梦；Kavak在墨西哥处理一笔交易可能需要几天时间，而在巴西则需要不到40分钟。

Kavak, which last month raised $700m in a funding round that valued it at $8.7bn, is part of a startup explosion in Mexico.

Kavak是墨西哥初创企业爆发式增长的一部分。该公司在上个月的一轮融资中筹得7亿美元，对其估值为87亿美元。

Transactions often involve " meeting someone at a corner store and seeing how it goes" , says Alejandro Guerra, Kavak's general manager in Mexico.

Kavak在墨西哥的总经理亚历杭德罗·圭拉说，交易通常涉及“在街角的商店里与某人见面，看看进展如何”。

Kavak, a Mexican startup, provides an elegant solution to a glaring problem: how to buy a used vehicle in a market that is both one of the world's biggest and its most informal second-hand car markets.

如何在一个全球最大、也最不正规的二手车市场购买二手车。

This money has been pouring into home-grown businesses that, like Kavak, solve what Philipp Haugwitz of McKinsey, a consultancy, calls " pain points" in Mexico -- of which there are plenty, from horrible traffic to a lumbering financial sector.

这些资金源源不断地涌入像Kavak这样的本土企业，解决了麦肯锡咨询公司的菲利普·豪维茨所说的墨西哥的“痛点”——痛点繁多，从糟糕的交通状况到步履蹒跚的金融业。
