BUENOS AIRES—Argentina posted primary fiscal and financial surpluses in June, the economy ministry said on Tuesday, showing the fruits of a drastic austerity package rolled out by libertarian President Javier Milei, who took office in December.
Both the fiscal and financial balances are the sixth consecutive monthly surpluses, and June’s financial surplus—which includes interest payments by the government—is the first time since 2008 that six in a row have been recorded, the ministry added.
