For Massa, energy is a key issue due to the impact of fuel imports on public finances and investments pending at Vaca Muerta, including the Néstor Kirchner gas pipeline, for which work contracts for the first section have begun. He will discuss this whole package when he calls in Houston in September to meet with major hydrocarbon companies, looking for new engagements.

His team announced two key measures on Tuesday: the corporate income tax advance, which has spawned rejection in the private sector, and a new subsidy removal regime, with rate increases ranging from 50 to 150%. The aim is to reach the primary deficit target of 2.5% agreed with the IMF, but it still has to cover a gap of 0.3% of GDP.

The panel of exhibitors will be completed with the participation of Natalio Mario Grinman, president of the Chamber of Commerce and Services (CAC), the body that also organizes the event, and Susana Segal, president and CEO of Americas Society / Council of Americas (ASCOA) . ), which Massa visited in the United States last year as part of a tour where she also met the former president of that country, Bill Clinton.
