In an attempt to October, legislation was passed that could require repatriation of control inflation and the outflow of the Central Bank’s foreign export revenues for mining and hydrocarbon companies (Latin currency reserves, the Decree required that all export revenues American Tax Newsalert, 2011; Jasamie, 2013). generated by both the mining and energy sectors remain in, or be repatriated to, Argentina to be exchanged on the local market.

Over the past 10 years, Spencer Stuart has analyzed the background and demographics of CFOs of the largest and most important companies in the United States, Europe and Asia. This is the first time we’ve studied the CFO route to the top for executives in Latin America. We have performed a rigorous analysis of the careers of CFOs at leading companies in Argentina to better understand what has prepared them for the leadership positions they now occupy.
