🇦🇷🤝🇺🇸💰 — Argentina fully repays U.S. Treasury swap under President Javier Milei
The Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA) confirmed that it has fully repaid the activated tranche of the swap line with the U.S. Treasury.
👉 Argentina had used approximately USD 2.5 billion out of the total USD 20 billion swap facility, and that amount has now been completely canceled.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent highlighted on ❌ that this repayment reflects Argentina’s strengthened financial position, renewed access to international markets, and key improvements in monetary and exchange rate policy under President Javier Milei.
The U.S. Treasury stated that the operation fulfilled the purpose of the Exchange Stabilization Fund, which was deployed to address a period of short-term liquidity pressure affecting exchange rate and financial stability.
The Treasury also noted that the Exchange Stabilization Fund has been fully repaid, holds no Argentine pesos, and recorded a financial gain on the operation. The IMF and the broader international community remain supportive of Argentina’s ongoing economic program.
With the swap fully settled, Argentina’s financing needs are currently being met through market access.
