ARGENTINA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Argentina benefits from rich natural resources, a highly literate population,
an export-oriented agricultural sector, and a diversified industrial base.
Although one of the world's wealthiest countries 100 years ago, Argentina
suffered during most of the 20th century from recurring economic crises,
persistent fiscal and current account deficits, high inflation, mounting
external debt, and capital flight. In 2016, the World Bank downgraded Argentina
from a high-income to upper-middle-income economy, on par with Columbia.
A severe depression, growing public and external indebtedness, and an
unprecedented bank run culminated in 2001 in the most serious economic, social,
and political crisis in the country's turbulent history. Interim President
Adolfo RODRIGUEZ SAA declared a default - at the time the largest ever - on the
government's foreign debt in December of that year, and abruptly resigned only
a few days after taking office. His successor, Eduardo DUHALDE, announced an
end to the peso's decade-long 1-to-1 peg to the US dollar in early 2002. The
economy bottomed out that year, with real GDP 18% smaller than in 1998 and
almost 60% of Argentines below the poverty line. Real GDP rebounded to grow by
an average 8.5% annually over the subsequent six years, taking advantage of
previously idled industrial capacity and labor, and expansionary monetary and
fiscal policies. Inflation also increased, however, during the administration
of President Nestor KIRCHNER, which responded with price restraints on
businesses, as well as export taxes and restraints, and beginning in 2007, with
understating inflation data.
Cristina FERNANDEZ DE KIRCHNER succeeded her husband as president in
late 2007, and the rapid economic growth of previous years began to slow
sharply the following year as government policies held back exports and the
world economy fell into recession. The economy in 2010 rebounded strongly from
the 2009 recession, but slowed in late 2011 even as the government continued to
rely on expansionary fiscal and monetary policies, which kept inflation in the
double digits.
In order to deal with these problems, the government expanded state
intervention in the economy: it nationalized the oil company YPF from Spain's
Repsol, expanded measures to restrict imports, and further tightened currency
controls in an effort to bolster foreign reserves and stem capital flight.
Between 2011 and 2013, Central Bank foreign reserves dropped $21.3 billion from
a high of $52.7 billion. In July 2014, Argentina and China agreed on an $11
billion currency swap; the Argentine Central Bank has received the equivalent
of $3.2 billion in Chinese yuan, which it counts as international reserves.
With the election of President Mauricio MACRI in November 2015,
Argentina began a historic political and economic transformation, as his
administration took steps to liberalize the Argentine economy, lifting capital
controls, floating the peso, removing export controls on some commodities,
cutting some energy subsidies, and reforming the country’s official statistics.
Argentina negotiated debt payments with holdout bond creditors and returned to
international capital markets in April 2016. In September 2016, Argentina
completed its first IMF Article IV Consultation since 2006.
After years of international isolation, Argentina took on several
international leadership roles in 2017, including hosting the World Economic
Forum on Latin America and the World Trade Organization Ministerial Conference,
and is set to assume the presidency of the G-20 in 2018.
