00:00They will be able to display prices of goods and services in dollars.
00:03Yes, indeed.
00:05It will be published today at midnight in the official newspaper,
00:08the resolution of the Ministry of Commerce,
00:10which will enable the payment in dollars or in pesos of goods and services.
00:16Can you clarify something about the Ministry of Commerce?
00:18What we were talking about off the air and at the beginning of this topic.
00:21What is going to happen?
00:23How much is the price going to be worth in dollars?
00:26And how much is it going to be worth in pesos?
00:28This is what the merchant decides.
00:30The government is not going to arbitrate in deciding a price.
00:33There is not going to be a parity.
00:34And that is not going to generate inflation?
00:36I think it can generate something else.
00:38That I think we have to see how it is done.
00:41The black market?
00:42No, it can generate...
00:45I insist, this is a look.
00:48I tell you, this good is worth a thousand pesos.
00:52Yes.
00:54But if you pay me in dollars, it is worth 50 cents a dollar.
00:59If you have 50 cents in your bank account.
01:01What are you going to choose?
01:0350 cents a dollar.
01:04And if the good comes out to produce it, 20 cents a dollar?
01:08Well, you don't know that.
01:10Well, but I lower the price in dollars to stay with the bill
01:15and resign a little margin of gain.
01:17You have to see, let's say, face to face.
01:20But if there is no price to arbitrate...
01:23There has to be a comparable price.
01:25And how?
01:26If there is not.
01:27But who has dollars to pay for services?
01:31Not all people have.
01:33The minister said it.
01:34Of course.
01:35People will have to take out the dollars to pay.
01:36Of course.
01:37I understand what you are saying.
01:38The issue is that.
01:39Ok, perfect.
01:40What is the...
01:41Of course.
01:42It will make sense if you...
01:43Let's put it in a restaurant.
01:44You are going to eat in a restaurant.
01:45Yes.
01:46If you pay in dollars, it will come out as if it came out in cheaper pesos.
01:50You can already.
01:5125 dollars.
01:52If you pay in pesos, you get 30,000 pesos.
01:53Yes.
01:54And in dollars, 25.
01:55If you don't get 25 dollars, you are going to eat and pay in dollars.
01:56Yes.
01:57And you pay in dollars.
01:58Perfect.
01:59Who benefits?
02:00Why are you going to eat and pay?
02:01Because it's cheaper.
02:02Because it's 25.
02:03If they tell you it's 25.
02:04Well, in theory.
02:05Let's suppose it was cheaper.
02:06You pay it in dollars.
02:07The point is that...
02:08The idea is that people take out the dollars they have saved.
02:09Exactly.
02:10I'm trying to understand what that is.
02:11There were many people who did whitewash, but the government knows that many people still
02:12have dollars saved and want to get rid of those dollars.
02:13Well, that's the point.
02:14The idea is that people take out the dollars they have saved.
02:23Yes.
02:24It's not cash.
02:25Of course.
02:26It's not cash.
02:27I think this is part of what was the campaign announcement to dollarize the economy.
02:28I mean, it goes in this direction.
02:29It goes in that direction.
02:30Because at the impossibility of dollarizing the economy, the government takes this measure
02:31as if to say, choose the currency you want and use the currency you want.
02:32I think it goes that way.
02:33Why am I saying that?
02:34Precisely because there is no unit, let's say, of convertibility, let's say, to say,
02:35hey, I'm going to use this currency.
02:36I'm going to use this currency.
02:37I'm going to use this currency.
