  • He assured there will be no shortage of dollars, citing record foreign-exchange reserve purchases over the past 18 months—the highest in Argentina’s history.
  • He projected that energy and mining developments under the RIGI scheme will help triple Argentina’s exports within seven to eight years.
  • He highlighted six approved RIGI projects worth US$13 billion to attract long-term investment in energy, mining and agroexport sectors.
