Argentine Securities News
Latest equities, bonds, and regulatory news from Argentina, updated daily.
Market overview
Argentina’s listed market runs through Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos, known as BYMA, which lists and trades equities, corporate and sovereign debt, funds and CEDEARs, the local depositary receipts over foreign shares. BYMA describes its own role as covering the whole life of a security, from listing through the primary placement system SICOLP, then secondary trading, entry into settlement and the final delivery or payment of the traded securities. New instruments arrive by issuer rather than by index review: the exchange recently admitted 13 new equity CEDEARs issued by Banco Comafi.

The regulator is the Comisión Nacional de Valores, which describes itself as the body responsible for the regulation, supervision, promotion and development of the capital market. The governing statute is the Ley de Mercado de Capitales, Ley 26.831, whose article 2 defines what counts as a negotiable security. That definition now carries weight beyond equities and bonds, because Ley N° 27.739 made the CNV the regulator of virtual asset service providers, and the CNV has published a notice stating that its competence extends to those providers and not to virtual assets themselves unless a given asset qualifies as a negotiable security under article 2. Below the statute the CNV legislates by Resolución General, with recent numbers running to 1103/2026, 1098/2025, 1086/2025 and 1058/2025, supplemented by Ministry of Economy resolutions such as 1/2026 that set fees and charges.
BYMA classifies its listed issuers by sector, using categories a reader of global indices will recognise: Finanzas, Energía, Materiales, Industrial, Salud, Bienes Inmobiliarios, Consumo Discrecional, Productos de Primera Necesidad, Servicios de Utilidad Pública, Servicios de Comunicación and two technology groupings covering software, IT services and telecommunications. Each issuer record on the exchange carries the ticker, the ISIN, the sector, the fiscal year end and the registered domicile, and flags membership of the S&P BYMA General index and of the exchange’s sustainability index. The board mixes financial names such as A3 Mercados with industrial and materials producers such as Agrometal and Aluar Aluminio Argentino, several of them domiciled outside Buenos Aires.
Prices in this market are set against a peso whose cost of money the Banco Central de la Republica Argentina publishes daily. Its reference exchange rate table for 2026-09-02 put the United States dollar at 1511 pesos. International reserves stood at 48259 million dollars on 2026-08-31 and the monetary base at 47451537 million pesos on the same date. The central bank also publishes the peso interest rate series that price local funding, among them the BADLAR and TM20 rates for private banks, the BAIBAR interbank rate, the average rate on thirty day deposits, current account overdraft rates and personal loan rates, each updated daily. Those series matter to any reading of an Argentine issuer, because peso rates move both the discount applied to local earnings and the relative appeal of sovereign paper against equity. GSN covers BYMA listings and CEDEAR admissions, CNV resolutions and enforcement, and the central bank series that reprice the market.
