Argentina has refinanced about $50.3bn worth of peso-denominated sovereign debt in a record bond swap aimed at relieving pressure on public accounts and easing the path for libertarian President Javier Milei to lift currency controls later this year.
阿根廷在一次创纪录的债券互换中对价值约503亿美元的比索计价主权债务进行了再融资，目的是减轻公共账户的压力，并为自由派总统哈维尔•米莱(Javier Milei)在今年晚些时候取消货币管制铺平道路。
The economy ministry, led by former Wall Street trader Luis Caputo, said on Tuesday that it had swapped titles worth 42.6tn pesos ($50.3bn) — representing 77 per cent of treasury instruments due this year — for those maturing between 2025 and 2028.
由前华尔街交易员路易斯•卡普托(Luis Caputo)领导的阿根廷经济部周二表示，其已将价值42.6万亿比索（合503亿美元）的债券——占今年到期国债的77%——换成了2025年至2028年到期的债券。
Caputo is attempting to eliminate Argentina’s fiscal deficit this year and end the government’s reliance on money printing. The ultimate goal, analysts say, is to curb both the country’s sky-high inflation and the exchange rate pressures that make it risky to lift strict currency controls introduced by previous governments.
卡普托试图消除阿根廷今年的财政赤字，结束政府对印钞的依赖。分析人士称，最终目标是遏制该国极高的通货膨胀和汇率压力，这使得阿根廷取消前几届政府实施的严格货币管制是有风险的。
