Highs and Lows from the First Month of the New Administration

Second week
January 2020

The beginning of Alberto Fernández’s administration was a pleasant surprise on a fiscal note and in the sense that it is trying to solve the debt restructuring in a friendly way. It has been predictable and interventionist regarding sector policies with utilities rates freezes, with Precios Cuidados, and with the return of non-automatic importing licenses, and it has been pushing forward with some hard-to-solve problems such as new utilities rates and a long-lasting lowering of inflation. An economic program that will provide a framework on the medium run and that will help take investment decisions is still pending.
