Financing plan. Argentina’s economy minister Luis Caputo announced this week that the country had secured refinancing for its debts for the remainder of 2026 and 2027. Principal and interest payments for the next 18 months are very high. In the remaining six months of 2026, Argentina must find US$19.2bn to cover principal and interest payments, with a further US$24.9bn falling due in 2027. Caputo claimed that the remaining sum for 2026 had been “over-fulfilled by around US$3.7bn”, which would go towards next year’s total, singling out US$6.7bn of dollar repurchasing, US$6bn through local debt issuance under local legislation, and US$5bn of funds from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and other multilaterals.
