During the government of Argentine President Javier Milei, the Liquid Fuels Tax (ICL) more than doubled its share of the final price of super gasoline, rising from 8.9 percent in November 2023 to 19.25 percent in July. In real terms, the tax burden included in each liter of fuel increased from 116 pesos to 400 pesos.
Separately, in Peru, the government announced plans to raise the minimum wage to S/1,300 through a two-stage implementation process. According to the Ministry of Economy and Finance, led by Elmer Cuba, the first increase of S/100 is tentatively scheduled for November 2026, followed by a second incremental adjustment.
