Argentine banking association proposes regulatory easing to manage rising loan delinquency

The Asociación de Bancos Públicos y Privados de la República Argentina (ABAPPRA) has requested the Central Bank (BCRA) relax debtor classification standards and accounting requirements for delinquent loans. This move aims to mitigate the impact of rising non-performing loans on bank balance sheets, though the BCRA's willingness to compromise on prudential standards remains uncertain.
