The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic closed another session with a buying balance and added another US$ 20 million to the official foreign exchange market, in a new sign of currency accumulation under the successful economic program of the Government of Javier Milei
According to data reported by the monetary authority, international reserves ended this Tuesday, June 23, at US$ 47.469 billion. With the net purchase of the day, the BCRA has accumulated US$ 70 million acquired so far this week and maintains a positive trend in June, a month in which it has already accumulated purchases of US$ 1.176 billion.
Summary of the day at the Central Bank of Santiago Bausilli
The Central Bank continues to demonstrate its ability to keep incorporating dollars into the market, even in a context of increased currency movement. So far in 2026, the net acquisitions of the monetary authority have already reached US$ 10.923 billion, a significant figure for a country that has lived for years with currency controls, restrictions, patches, and reserves under constant pressure.
On the currency front, the average selling retail exchange rate reported by the Central Bank closed at $1,491.127 per dollar. In the wholesale segment, the main market reference, the currency ended at $1,471.50, while the official retail dollar advanced on bank boards.
Regarding reserves, the gross stock showed a slight daily decrease of US$ 38 million, largely explained by valuation factors, especially due to the decline in gold and the movements of currencies that make up the Special Drawing Rights basket. A significant part of the variation responds to accounting issues and not necessarily to a direct outflow of dollars from cash.

The Central Bank has once again purchased foreign currency, the weekly balance is in line with the positive trend and the Government continues to strengthen the external position. The accumulation of purchases in June, which already reaches US$ 1.176 billion, constitutes a significant signal for the consolidation of the economic program.
