Argentine Industry Group Presses Tax and Labor Overhaul, Seeks Meeting With Caputo

UIA says a broader taxpayer base would cut costs by drawing firms into the formal economy.

Overview

  • UIA president Martín Rappallini renewed calls on Nov. 16 for reforms to expand the number of taxpayers and curb informality as central goals for industry policy.
  • He highlighted the tax base’s concentration, noting that about 1,000 CUITs generate 50% of revenue and 10,000 account for 75%.
  • The group proposes revising the monotributo and responsible-inscriptos regimes to create a graduated system that eases firms’ path into formality.
  • UIA is seeking direct talks with Economy Minister Luis Caputo, as officials prioritize macro stabilization with exchange-rate bands and reserve building.
  • Industry leaders back lowering tax pressure on productive chains and advancing labor changes to reduce litigation, while expressing support for Milei’s direction following recent electoral backing.
