Argentina reserves dip below $50B despite BCRA FX purchases
PerfilLO·AR·about 8 hours ago
Argentina's central bank (BCRA) bought only US$12 million in reserves today, bringing September purchases to nearly 60% below August levels. Gross reserves declined again, signaling reduced dollar inflows and potential pressure on the peso. This suggests weakening export revenues or increased demand for dollars, raising concerns about the sustainability of the government's exchange-rate policy.
