Yesterday, the dollar contributions in Argentina showed significant differences between the official dollar and the dollar Blue. The official dollar, which is negotiated in authorized banks and exchange houses, closed to $ 1,074.50 for sale and $ 1,034.50 for purchase on the board of the Bank of the Argentine Nation (Banco Nación).
On the other hand, the dollar Blue, which is marketed in the parallel or informal market, quoted at $ 1,215 for sale and $ 1,195 for purchase in the city of Buenos Aires. The difference between both quotes, known as exchange gap, was 15.20%, reflecting the greatest demand and the highest costs associated with obtaining the dollar in the informal market.
This gap has been a constant in the Argentine exchange market, where the dollar Blue usually operates at a value higher than the officer due to the shortage of foreign exchange and exchange restrictions imposed by the government.
During the day, the dollar Blue maintained a stable price, closing without significant changes with respect to the previous day. However, the official dollar registered an increase of 25 cents compared to the previous Wednesday, in line with the “Crawling Peg” scheme implemented by the Government.

This scheme allows regular adjustments in the contribution of the dollar Officer to try to control inflation and maintain the competitiveness of exports.
The Argentine exchange market has been subject to constant attention due to the economic policies implemented by the government of Javier Milei, which seek to reduce state intervention and promote market liberalization.
Taxes
Among the measures adopted is the elimination of the Tax on the transfer of real estate (ITI) and the stamps tax in the purchase of the first home in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA), as well as the elimination of the country tax.
The International Monetary Fund (IMP) has highlighted the need to continue adopting fiscal, monetary and exchange policies, as well as more structural reforms to advance economic growth. The director of communications of the IMF, Julie Kozack, highlighted the “enormous progress of Argentina” and the continuous collaboration with the Argentine authorities to reach a new agreement.
