Overview
- Bank branches are closed today across the country with no in‑person attention, in line with Article 50 of the banking collective agreement.
- Home banking, mobile apps and ATMs operate normally, though banks warn of possible high demand and faster cash depletion at machines.
- Clearing houses and local financial markets suspend activity, so maturities, payments and securities settlements roll to the next business day.
- Operations requiring presence in a branch—such as over‑the‑counter deposits or withdrawals, account procedures and loan document signing—are deferred.
- The sector’s annual Día del Bancario bonus is paid, reported at roughly ARS 700,000 for entry categories up to ARS 1,708,032.46 for higher levels, with some instant transfers and cheque credits posting the next business day.
