Argentina offers tax amnesty to head off devaluation

“Argentina’s latest effort to tease out billions of U.S. dollars said to be held by citizens through sweeping tax breaks and interest earnings received lukewarm response, though this may change.  Argentine citizens are said to be holding the greenback in illegal stashes as a hedge against the Argentine peso’s unstable performance, a runaway inflation and general distrust of the government’s fiscal and monetary policies. Official estimates say at least $160 billion is held in cash at home and abroad by Argentines who have yet to declare their holdings.”
