What are the expectations for the sector in this new phase of government?
At this conference, we aim to demonstrate the industry’s role in this paradigm shift, seeing the industry as a whole as an important actor in solving Argentina’s problems, and to show that it is part of an industry that is embedded in the world. There will be many conversations during the event. Competitiveness Conference. The axis should look like this: workforce modernizationnew forms of employment and some old forms that excluded many people from the labor circuit. Modernization means more white labor, more formal and less informal. Also compatible with Tax reform and simplification. Today Argentina is one of the most informal countries, with very few people paying the tax burden. This creates unfair competition and makes liquidation of small and medium-sized enterprises extremely difficult, so in addition to simplification, it is necessary to expand the tax base and reduce taxes.
The government is working hard to resolve and abolish unnecessary and cumbersome procedures, but the fundamental challenge is to move away from the informalization of labor in an increasingly informal economy. On the other hand, what I am going to talk about is cost of argentina. As businessmen, we are very competitive internally, but when we go out, we compete with very heavy backpacks of taxes, labor costs, procedures, hidden costs, logistics, etc. This is a sector that produces a source of qualified jobs, and we must be the private sector that produces these quality jobs. Furthermore, it is a field that is deeply ingrained in society. Where there is industry, there is better education, health, roads, schools, clubs, and so the social structure changes. Argentina has an extensive industrial network and is characterized by a regional economy.
What message do you hope the government will send?
“It will be interesting to see the change in cabinet. After December 10th, reforms will be introduced immediately. Let’s not forget that in the campaign.” Millais called the businessman a hero.. it’s the government related to private sector needs To keep moving forward, keep growing, keep innovating. We will see what the reforms look like, but we believe that the reforms aim to position Argentina as a world protagonist, a wealth creator, because only in this way can poverty be reduced. ”
You mentioned Argentina’s entry into the world. What are your expectations for a trade deal with the United States?
“We have to know the details of the agreement. However, all agreements favorable to the export of our products are Argentina needs to export more to generate real dollars, so there is demand all over the world, including in my sector, food. The country has great potential and this agreement can contribute to export growth, in addition to creating more jobs and more industries. ”
What is expected from this activity?
“As long as reforms are implemented, activity and productivity will increase. Expectations are good as both reforms aim to: Reducing informality that causes unfair competition. This field is not seeking privilege, but rather a leveling of the playing field so that no one is left in an inferior situation. ”
Has there been any change in your relationship with the government?
“The industry is very heterogeneous, the sectors are different and there is a spirit of dialogue and cooperation with the government. The relationship is good and the more the reforms are known, the better it will get. Let us remember that the UIA is already part of Mayo Council through its president Martin Rapparini.”
