Fiscal and financial management in Latin America

Overview

Fiscal and financial management challenges are emerging across several Latin American nations. In the Dominican Republic, the government is planning a transfer of RD$44,555.8 million to the Central Bank in 2027 to address the “quasi-fiscal deficit” through recapitalization.

In Argentina, economic risks have been identified regarding the 2026 budget. Analysts warn that if projected revenues from hydroelectric sales and Central Bank profits are not met, the country may face deeper fiscal adjustments, including reduced transfers to provinces and the removal of energy subsidies. Concurrently, Nuevo Banco del Chaco has introduced debt regularization and consolidation programs to assist clients with overdue payments.

In Uruguay, the transition to new digital protocols for social security loans has caused delays. The Asociación de Trabajadores de la Seguridad Social reported that staffing shortages and new web-based security validation requirements have slowed access to loan unifications, a situation officials are working to resolve.
