El BCIE frente a la rendición de cuentas en Centroamérica

El nombramiento del nuevo presidente del Banco Centroamericano de Integración Económica (BCIE) es de vital importancia para la democracia y el desarrollo de la región. Quien sea electo y asuma el timón de esta entidad tiene que responder a la misión para la que fue creada, a los compromisos que ha adquirido y a la soberanía del pueblo centroamericano, no a los intereses de los líderes populistas de turno. De otra forma continuará la complicidad contra la democracia y la fidelidad de ser el Banco de los dictadores.

La inflación, el congelamiento del córdoba y las remesas

La decisión de eliminar el deslizamiento anual de uno por ciento o más de devaluación gradual del tipo de cambio es un control de precaución monetaria ante la creciente inflación asociada con un aumento de las importaciones y un mayor encarecimiento en 2024.
