Argentina & the IMF: deal or no deal?

Although the Argentine government and the IMF do not fully see eye-to-eye, there have been signs of progress in negotiations and we think it’s most likely that they will sign a fresh agreement within the next few months. That would probably give some relief to bondholders in the near term. But we remain sceptical that a new IMF deal would be enough to fix Argentina’s economic issues over the coming years.
