Last week, the Transparency and Public Ethics Board released the president’s latest sworn statement.
President Luis Lacalle Pou increased his assets by 60% since the beginning of his mandate, according to the three sworn statements presented by the leader in the Transparency and Public Ethics Board (Jutep), among which are a property valued at $670,000 dollars and a Harley Davinson worth $55,000.
The Jutep released the president’s last sworn statement where he presented a heritage of $600,000 dollars, a total of assets valued at $847,439 dollars and a mortgage debt of $253,108. With this, the increase in the president’s assets increased by 60.9%, if compared with the other two sworn statements, since 2020, as reported by the weekly Busqueda.
During the year 2020, its assets were around $446,103 dollars, rising to $479,869 in 2022 and 847,439 in the current year, which represented an increase of 90%. Regarding liabilities, in 2020 they totaled $76,682 dollars, in 2022 $71,052 and in 2024 they increased to $253,108 dollars due to a mortgage debt, generating an increase of 230% in that category.
Your assets
Between the period of 2022 and 2024, the president’s assets reached 90%. This is due, first, to the sale of his house in November of last year – valued at $550,000 – and the subsequent purchase of another property valued at $670,000, of which he owns 100%. of the property.
Also, their savings grew as well as the number of vehicles. Between 2022 and 2024, the president acquired a motorcycle Harley Davidson valued at $55,000 which is added to a truck toyota and a suzuki which it has had since 2020.
More heritage than Mujica and Vázquez
If compared to the president’s two predecessors, Lacalle Pou was one of those who increased his assets the most during his government. Tabare Vazquez saw his assets increase by 27.3% during his government between 2015 and 2020, adding a total of assets of $1,390,464 compared to $1,092,702 dollars when his government began.
Jose Mujica, for its part, experienced an increase in its assets by 43% in 2015 in relation to the sworn declaration of 2012 where it had total assets of $290,071 dollars. Both Mujica and Vázquez did not present liabilities, unlike President Lacalle Pou.
