If we take President Milei's achievements in Argentina at his word, his policies have led to the reduction of inflation, created a fiscal surplus and a reduction of the country's credit debts. He has avoided impeachment, hyperinflation, reduced price indexes, controlled social unrest and carried out far-reaching austerity measures.
Can President Milei consolidate stability, avoid problems with the exchange rate and maintain fiscal discipline in 2025 all in the lead up to mid-term elections in October?
On The LatinNews Podcast this week, we speak to Jorge Morgenstern, chief economist at Galicia MAS and formerly chief economist for HSBC in Latin America and explore how the Argentine public has largely bought in to the Milei experiment and looking ahead, with elections in Chile in 2025 and then in Colombia and Peru in 2026, could this model from Argentina - formerly a byword for economic instability in the region - be exported across the region.
