The government of Javier Milei At this time, the measure with which they expect Argentines who have treasured dollars without declaring to be encouraged to enter them within the formal system. The regulations are still in development, many areas of the economic team – Ministry of Economy, Central Bank, Arca and FIU- and official sources participated to Infobae which could be announced next Wednesday.
In officials of officials they emphasize that everything will follow the recommendations of the International Financial Action Group (GAFI) Regarding the origin of the funds. “Many pavadas are being said that they are not. Everything will follow international standards,” they said before the consultation of this medium. The GAFI is an intergovernmental organization that created the G7, in 1989, which sets standards to prevent money laundering and terrorism financing.
“We are going to protect the richness of the people that these years saved without committing any crime, which are the vast majority of Argentines. The worst enemy of the anti -ilavado system is the cash. That is the spirit of the measure that is being analyzed, ”explained the sources.
The premise with which the areas of the government involved are working is that the controls on those who really do not want to pursue were relaxed, which Milei defined as “the wells of good.” That is, you will aim to fight the maneuvers of “drug traffickers, corrupt and terrorists.”
One of the keys that are discussed around the implementation of the new scheme are the demands that those that are attached to it would have. According to this media, days ago, according to sources consulted, an option could be that every person who decides to use unst declared funds present some kind of procedure or declaration in which he affirms that resources do not come from illegal activities. This condition would work as a basic requirement.
The director of the Central Bank, Federico Furiaseexplained Thursday during his participation in the streaming Fuck that The objective of the measures is that “it is easier for people to turn the dollars from the mattress to the economy” and with that “naphtha” to the activity. The economic team advisor said that greater growth would gain more collection and the government will have room to lower taxes. “That is the famous reonetization in dollars or endogenous dollarization,” he said.
GAFI updated last February its standards to strengthen financial inclusion without compromising the fight against money laundering and terrorism financing, to give greater flexibility to governments in “low risk” contexts. Although Argentina continues under the review of the agency until February 2026, that could be a clear clear alternative to frame the incentive measures.
According to the GAFI, the most important policy to combat washing is banking and that everything that goes through the financial system and implies the elimination of cash helps make controls more efficient.
From the economic team they avoided giving details, although they confirmed that the Ministry of Economy, mainly from Arca, works on the final aspects of a decree that more flexible controls for those who use not declared dollars with a specific use of consumption. It will not be a laundering in the sense that a window will not open to declare tickets and leave them deposited as treasurement. It points, rather, to relax the requirement of information for these types of cases.
By definition, there are two laws that act as control: the criminal tax and exchange law. The government could not change any of the two by decree or resolution, it should necessarily go through Congress and it is not the intention in this election year.
“We want people to enter dollars, buy what they want and what Do not leave the fingers marked so that they will be chasing them later”, Said the president on Thursday at LATAM Economic Forum.
“They put dollars below the mattress because there were a set of bitch children who strive with the inflation tax. Those who took the dollars to the mattress are not criminals. They will be able to get the dollars without leaving their fingers marked,” said the head of state.
In the same event, a few hours before, the Minister of Economy had spoken in the same sense, Luis Caputo. “There are USD 200,000 million in mattresses, why not use those dollars?” Caputo did not give details of the measure in which he works with the economic team, but said that it seeks to start circulation to the US tickets to sustain the rhythm of economic activity.
