Presupuesto 2027: el Gobierno dice que bajará la inflación, habrá mejores salarios y se mantendrá la estabilidad macroeconómica
The Argentine National Government submitted an advance version of the 2027 Budget to the Chamber of Deputies on July 1, outlining plans to reduce inflation, improve real wages, and maintain macroeconomic stability. The document, led by Economy Minister Luis Caputo, projects continued economic normalization and growth through 2029, emphasizing reduced inflation, stronger wage recovery, and improved household income. It also anticipates a slowdown in inflation, which would support consumption and investment decisions. The budget highlights expected improvements in employment rates, poverty reduction, and increased tax revenues driven by economic activity and exports. The government aims to continue supporting private-sector competitiveness and maintaining open economic policies.
Economist Juan Enrique argues that in Argentina, what has decreased is not inflation but the incomes of all citizens. He criticizes the government's narrative that inflation has dropped, pointing out that wages and living costs have risen significantly. Using examples such as bus fares, gas prices, electricity bills, meat prices, and fuel costs, he highlights that everyday expenses have increased by over 300%, some even exceeding 900%. Enrique calls for transparency with the International Monetary Fund regarding Argentina's debt situation and urges those who can afford it to pay taxes to support essential services like pensions, education, healthcare, and security forces.

The article discusses Argentine inflation trends, focusing on the expected Consumer Price Index (IPC) for June, which is projected to remain above 1.5%. Economist Santiago Casas argues that while the monthly figure is less important than the ongoing deflationary process. He explains that lower inflation does not mean prices stop rising, but rather they increase at a slower rate. Casas also critiques the methodology used to calculate the IPC, noting that it is outdated due to delays in updating the consumption basket. Additionally, he questions the accuracy of informal wage measurements and analyzes the behavior of the exchange rate, suggesting that recent fluctuations do not significantly impact prices.
