Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent held an introductory call with Argentine Finance Minister Luis Caputo. The conversation centered on Argentina's ongoing economic reforms under the Milei Administration, which aim to address inflation, stimulate private sector growth, reduce poverty, and boost real wages.
Secretary Bessent expressed approval of the measures implemented by Finance Minister Caputo. "The Secretary commended Finance Minister Caputo for macroeconomic and structural reform measures that reduce the burden of regulation on the private sector, and that reduce the size and influence of government."
This dialogue marks a step in continued collaboration between the United States and Argentina as both nations work towards achieving their economic goals.
