The value of the Mobile Unit of the Law No. 27,442 is updated
On February 25, 2025, Resolution No. 21/2025 was published in the Official Gazette, by means of which the Secretariat of Industry and Trade updated the value of the Mobile Unit (“MU”) defined in Section 85 of Antitrust Law No. 27,442 (the “AL”).
The value of the MU, which is updated annually using the Consumer Price Index published by the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas y Censos, will be AR$ 1102.28 as of February 26, 2024 (previously it was AR$ 506.19).
As a result, the thresholds for the notification of economic concentration transactions and the amounts of the fines provided by the AL as well as the fines that can be imposed for the infringement of the Fair Trade regime established by the Emergency Decree No. 274/2019 are automatically raised.
