This Tuesday marks one year since the lifting of the exchange rate stocks, a historic measure announced by the Government of Javier Milei in 2025 and which represents one of the key milestones of the reform program promoted by the current administration.
On April 14, 2025, the Executive moved forward with the elimination of exchange restrictions, allowing the free purchase of dollars for both individuals and companies.
The decision implied unlimited access to the official market and marked a structural change in the functioning of the financial system, dismantling a control scheme that had been in place for many years.
The measure meant the end of a mechanism that distorted the economy and conditioned the operation of the private sector. For this reason, the exit of the stocks made it possible to normalize the exchange market, reduce gaps and create more predictable conditions for investment
.Among the main effects after liberalization, is the accumulation of reserves by the Central Bank, which managed to strengthen its position in the months following the measure.
In turn, one of the points highlighted by the Executive was the stability of the exchange rate, which did not skyrocket despite initial fears and false news that existed before the restrictions were removed.
