Manuel Adorni has resigned from his position as chairman of YPF (Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales), a state-owned oil company in Argentina. His resignation was formally communicated through a letter to YPF's president, Horacio Marín, and follows his recent resignation as head of the Cabinet amid an ongoing judicial investigation into alleged illicit enrichment. Adorni had been appointed to the board in January 2026 to represent Class A shares of the state. The opposition had pressured him to step down from YPF after he left his cabinet role, as he would then be eligible to receive the high monthly salary of 95 million pesos associated with the board position. President Javier Milei confirmed Adorni’s departure earlier in the week and expressed confidence in his innocence despite the legal proceedings. Adorni did not receive the YPF salary because he remained a national official. Diego Santilli, the new head of the Cabinet, will replace Adorni on the board. The YPF board includes 11 main members and six alternates, with some representing Class D shares. Adorni’s exit comes amid significant political pressure and scrutiny over his legal situation.
Manuel Adorni, jefe de Gabinete de la provincia de Buenos Aires, presentó su nueva declaración jurada patrimonial en febrero de 2025, corrigiendo información de años anteriores. Sin embargo, no incluyó el anexo reservado que detalla los bienes de su esposa, Bettina Angeletti. Este documento, necesario para completar el perfil patrimonial completo del grupo familiar, fue enviado a la Justicia sin estar disponible, según la Oficina Anticorrupción. Esta omisión ha generado preocupación, especialmente porque Adorni ajustó importantes aspectos de su patrimonio, atribuyéndolos a los ingresos y ahorros conjuntos con su esposa. Su equipo indica que tiene hasta el 31 de julio para finalizar la documentación, mientras se lleva a cabo el análisis judicial sobre su situación financiera.
La falta de este anexo resalta debido a que Adorni modificó información clave sobre su patrimonio familiar. El formulario reservado es crucial para comprender la situación patrimonial completa del matrimonio, algo que podría tener implicaciones legales en el futuro. No es la primera vez que Adorni pospone la entrega de este documento. En su declaración anterior, también había retrasado la entrega del formulario correspondiente a su esposa, entregándolo solo en abril de este año, cuando la investigación sobre su patrimonio ya estaba avanzada. En esa ocasión, proporcionó detalles sobre la compra de una vivienda en el country Indio Cuá, lo cual sugiere que la transparencia en su declaración ha sido gradual y no siempre completa.
En declaraciones recientes, Adorni defendió la composición de su patrimonio, argumentando que parte de los recursos familiares proviene de la trayectoria laboral de su esposa, Bettina Angeletti, quien trabajó durante más de dos décadas en el sector privado. Según él, ella ocupó cargos gerenciales y esos ingresos formaron parte del patrimonio conjunto. Además, destacó que Angeletti nunca tuvo cargos en la administración pública y que, tras casarse, decidieron unificar sus ahorros. Reconoció también que durante años guardaron parte de esos fondos fuera del sistema formal, lo cual podría interpretarse como una evasión fiscal o una falta de transparencia.
Una de las modificaciones más relevantes en su declaración fue la situación de la vivienda en el country Indio Cuá. Inicialmente, Adorni no incluyó el inmueble en su patrimonio, considerándolo de propiedad exclusiva de su esposa. Sin embargo, tras observaciones sobre sus declaraciones, decidió rectificar y declarar que la titularidad corresponde en un 50% a cada uno. Esta decisión refleja un intento de ajustar su situación patrimonial para cumplir con ciertos estándares de transparencia, aunque no necesariamente con total claridad.
Paralelamente, tanto Adorni como su esposa se inscribieron en el régimen simplificado del Impuesto a las Ganancias, conocido como "Ley de Inocencia Fiscal". Esta medida, que facilita la presentación de declaraciones fiscales mediante una declaración prearmada elaborada por la Agencia de Recaudación y Control Aduanero (ARCA), fue algo que Adorni había elogiado públicamente el año anterior. Su adhesión ocurrió justo antes de la presentación de su declaración patrimonial ante la Oficina Anticorrupción, lo cual sugiere una coordinación entre su situación fiscal y las investigaciones abiertas sobre su patrimonio.
La adhesión a este régimen ha generado comentarios críticos, incluso de figuras políticas que han acusado a Adorni y a su esposa de ser "delincuentes". Estas críticas reflejan una percepción generalizada de desconfianza hacia la transparencia de su patrimonio, especialmente en un contexto donde la investigación sigue en marcha. Mientras tanto, Adorni y su entorno insisten en que su situación económica no puede evaluarse solo a partir de sus ingresos personales, sino que debe considerarse como parte de un patrimonio compartido. La expectativa ahora es que, con el plazo que se le otorga, Adorni complete la documentación faltante y aporte mayor claridad sobre la situación patrimonial de su familia. La próxima etapa será ver si esta acción mejora la percepción pública o si se intensifica la crítica sobre su transparencia.

Manuel Adorni, former Chief of Cabinet under President Javier Milei, has resigned from his position as chairman of YPF, Argentina's state-owned oil company, shortly after stepping down from his cabinet role amid an ongoing investigation into alleged illegal enrichment. Adorni informed YPF's CEO, Horacio Marín, of his resignation via a short letter, which now needs approval by the company's shareholders to complete the formal process outlined in YPF's statutes.
