La Plata banking sector developments
Overview
In late September 2026, the Federación Empresaria de La Plata (FELP) requested that Governor Axel Kicillof maintain current banking hours of 10:00 to 15:00 in La Plata, Berisso, and Ensenada for the upcoming summer season. The federation argued against a proposed 08:00 to 13:00 schedule, stating the current window better aligns with the working hours of local merchants and consumers while avoiding peak morning transit congestion.
By late October, focus shifted to internal union matters as the La Plata regional branch of the Banking Association prepared for leadership elections scheduled for November 25. The election involves over 1,200 members and features two competing lists. One group, Lista 13 Verde led by Martín Igartúa, has proposed a platform centered on transparency, modernization, and member programs including mental health support and training in artificial intelligence.
