The The market sees an acceleration in the rate of devaluation as inevitable after the elections, on the eve of the end of the year. This is how the consulting firm Delphos Investment considers it, which points out as triggers the level of net reserves that is “at the limit” and the impossibility of reaching an agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

If the agency continues with the current rate of sales to intervene in the MEP dollar market, the account shows that they are enough for a few more days. And the point is that the next payments to the IMF can be made with the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) granted by the body itself, but at the beginning of next year more dollars are needed. March is the limit. “

We need the IMF by our side so that everything is coordinated. “

The expectations and uncertainty derived from the electoral process next Sunday maintain the stimulus to anticipate obligations with the exterior as much as possible, accentuating the demand for foreign currency in a scenario of lower income from exporters and forcing the Central Bank to carry out intense activity to supply the market.
