UIA called for changes to "Super RIGI" to strengthen local suppliers

The Argentine Industrial Union (UIA) has called for modifications to the 'Super RIGI' investment regime to ensure greater participation of local suppliers in national development projects. During their monthly board meeting, UIA President Martin Rappallini emphasized that while special regimes are needed to attract investments, improving overall industry conditions remains crucial. The UIA proposed replicating the 20% minimum investment requirement from the existing RIGI regime but applying it specifically to goods with added national value. They also suggested progressive integration schemes to increase the involvement of Argentine suppliers at different stages of investment and operation. Additionally, the UIA highlighted concerns over the heavy tax burden on formal production, noting that thousands of small and medium-sized enterprises face risks due to high national, provincial, and municipal taxes.

According to the UIA's Center for Studies (CEU), industrial activity fell by 0.8% year-on-year in May, with significant下滑s
