During September 2026, the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) accelerated its pace of foreign currency acquisitions, registering its largest monthly dollar purchase. However, despite this acceleration, the institution is projected to close the month with the lowest level of acquisitions recorded so far this year. Concurrently, international reserves fell below the USD 4 billion threshold.
In a separate economic development in Central America, Costa Rica's Ministry of Finance reported an increase in central government revenues for August 2026. This fiscal improvement was attributed directly to targeted government actions against tax evasion and smuggling.
