Argentina Sets 2.6% June Pension Increase, With Mid‑Year Bonus and $70,000 Top‑Up

The CPI rule in Decree 274/24 locks in a 2.6% June update tied to April inflation.

Overview

  • ANSES set a 2.6% June increase for pensions after INDEC’s April CPI, as required by Decree 274/24.
  • June payments will include the mid‑year aguinaldo, a deposit equal to half of the highest monthly benefit from the last six months that ANSES pays automatically.
  • The $70,000 top‑up for low‑income beneficiaries remains non‑remunerative and month‑to‑month by decree, and IARAF estimates minimum earners have lost about 10.3% of purchasing power since late 2023.
  • For minimum beneficiaries, the June benefit is about ARS 403,318 and the SAC adds roughly ARS 201,659, with the $70,000 top‑up lifting the total near ARS 675,000.
  • For higher earners, the maximum monthly benefit is around ARS 2.71 million and the SAC pushes June income above ARS 4 million, with deposits scheduled by DNI from June 23 to 29 after minimums start June 8.
