Dimension Profile
Jurisdiction Risk Warnings
Extreme inflation history and currency volatility
Inflation reached 211% in 2023. Milei reforms reduced it to about 1.5% monthly by mid-2025, but the peso appreciation has made Argentina one of Latin Americas most expensive countries in USD terms.
Frequent policy reversals across administrations
Argentina shifted from Peronist capital controls to libertarian deregulation within one election cycle. IMF loan constraints limit fiscal flexibility.
History of property rights concerns
Argentina has a history of asset expropriations (YPF, airlines). Recent reforms are improving the business climate, but the legal system trust deficit takes years to rebuild.
