Colapso Argentino se aproxima.

Statement by the IMF Executive Board on Argentina

Press Release No. 13/33
February 1, 2013

The IMF’s Executive Board met on February 1, 2013 to consider the Managing Director’s report on Argentina’s progress in implementing remedial measures to address the quality of the official data reported to the Fund for the Consumer Price Index for Greater Buenos Aires (CPI-GBA) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

The Executive Board found that Argentina’s progress in implementing the remedial measures since the September 17, 2012 Board meeting (see Press Release No. 12/319) has not been sufficient. As a result, the Fund has issued a declaration of censure against Argentina in connection with its breach of obligation to the Fund under the Articles of Agreement.¹

The Board called on Argentina to adopt the remedial measures to address the inaccuracy of CPI-GBA and GDP data without further delay, and in any event, no later than September 29, 2013. The measures applicable to the CPI-GBA and GDP aim at aligning these indicators with the international statistical understandings and guidelines that ensure accurate measurement.

The Managing Director is required to report to the Executive Board by November 13, 2013 on the status of Argentina’s implementation of the above remedial measures. At that time, the Executive Board will again review this issue and Argentina’s response in line with IMF procedures.

The Fund stands ready to continue its dialogue with the Argentine authorities to improve the quality of the official CPI-GBA and GDP data, and, more generally, to strengthen the relationship between Argentina and the Fund. 

Em poucas palavras:

Ou o governo Argentino para de mentir para o povo sobre os números da inflação e do PIB, ou a Argentina estará fora do FMI em novembro desse ano. O único outro país que foi expulso do FMI foi a republica Tcheca.

O FMI foi curto e muito grosso mesmo.

É mesmo fácil ter uma inflação de 25% ao ano e mandar os técnicos reduzirem os números para dar 10% apenas.

 Coisas do socialismo.

Vai ser muito divertido e vamos ver um monte de argentinos correndo para cá.
