Argentina government says $4.6 billion declared in tax amnesty
Mon Oct 31, 2016 | 8:25pm GMT
Argentines have declared approximately $4.6 billion so far as part of the country's tax amnesty program, Finance Minister Alfonso Prat-Gay said on Monday.
Prat-Gay said around 100,000 people had decided to declare previously hidden cash assets held in Argentina, in the first of three phases of an amnesty program that the government hopes will help raise revenue and jump-start economic growth.
