Peru Starts Clock on Eighth AFP Withdrawal as Argentina Sets October Pension Increase and Mexico Wraps Bienestar Payouts

New payout schedules highlight short-term relief measures across Peru, Argentina, Mexico.

Overview

  • Peru’s eighth AFP withdrawal is now law, giving the SBS up to 30 calendar days — until around October 20 — to issue the regulation that will open requests for up to 4 UIT from private pension accounts.
  • The statute outlines a 90‑day window to apply once regulated, with disbursements in four monthly installments of 1 UIT each and funds treated as intangibles except for child‑support retentions; affiliates may halt remaining payouts with timely notice.
  • If the regulator moves on schedule, first AFP payments could begin in November, according to timelines reported by local outlets and specialists.
  • Argentina’s ANSES confirmed an October mobility update of about 1.9% with the AR$70,000 reinforcement maintained for lower incomes, setting DNI‑based calendars and lifting the minimum benefit to AR$326,362 or AR$396,362 with the bonus.
  • The AR$70,000 add‑on is paid in full at the minimum and prorated up to a cap, while Mexico’s Secretaría de Bienestar is completing the September–October Pensión Bienestar deposits this week by surname (R–Z) into Banco del Bienestar accounts, with the 65+ benefit at MXN 6,200 bimonthly.
