Argentina
Capital Repatriation Ban
Argentina is planning to impose a six-
month ban on the repatriation of funds by
foreign business firms, according to a
press report.
The move may be a response to unex-
pectedly high rates of capital repatriation
since the regime last month greatly
liberalized the rules governing foreign in-
vestment. The junta virtually repudiated
the restrictive Peronist code in an effort to
attract foreign capital back to Argentina.
Now, however, the junta may have
found that the amount of capital being
repatriated under the new law is greater
than the still shaky economy can safely
tolerate.
The six-month ban probably does not
signal a wholesale retreat from the liberal
economic policies the junta has favored to
date. It does point, however, to serious
problems�notably in the balance of
payments�that persist despite the very
real progress made thus far.
