BUENOS AIRES: Argentina’s central bank says it signed a US$20bil exchange rate stabilisation agreement with the US Treasury Department, six days ahead of a key midterm election.
The central bank’s statement said on Sunday the agreement sets forth terms for bilateral currency swap operations between the United States and Argentina, but it provided no technical details.
