Argentina Eases Bond Auction Rules in Aim to Lure More Dollars
Argentina's central bank unveiled a slew of measures Monday aimed at helping the South American nation amass more hard-currency reserves, firepower the country needs to defend the peso. Officials said local currency bonds can now be purchased with US dollars and that the minimum time requirements for foreign investors to hold onto some Argentine bonds will be eliminated. The monetary authority also said it would unveil a second repurchase agreement with several international lenders, of as much as $2 billion, on June 11.

Argentina launches $2 billion repurchase agreement to boost reserves
BUENOS AIRES, June 9 (Reuters) - Argentina's central bank will launch a repurchase agreement of up to $2 billion, known as a REPO, to boost its foreign reserves, it said on Monday. The deal - announced alongside other measures to increase the central bank's reserves - comes ahead of an expected review with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) of the country's recently signed $20 billion loan agreement. Argentina needs to boost its reserves ahead of the review, and has said it will not purchase dollars locally to do so. On Monday, the bank reported $38.60 billion in reserves, short of the $40 billion needed. The REPO deal is set for Wednesday, the central bank said in a statement.

Fury as BA calls Falkland Islands capital by its ARGENTINIAN name in ‘ludicrous and insulting' blunder
BRITISH Airways has been branded disgraceful for using the Argentinian name for the capital of the Falklands Islands on in-flight entertainment screens. The UK's flag carrier airline refers to Port Stanley as Puerto Argentino. 3 3 The British title is relegated to a set of brackets underneath. Ed West, of The Spectator magazine, spotted the blunder and said: 'Curious wording for a British Airways in-flight map.' Last night, BA promised to investigate as the error was described as 'ludicrous' and 'insulting' by Falklands war veterans. Argentina still claims sovereignty but its invading forces lost the 74-day conflict in 1982. British forces scrambled halfway around the world to put down General Leopoldo Galtieri's troops after they took Port Stanley in a surprise raid. This Saturday is the 43rd anniversary of Britain's victory. Former head of the Royal Navy, Admiral Lord West, who won the Distinguished Service Cross during the war, said the name error was 'disrespectful' to islanders. He told The Sun: 'It's disgraceful. 'The Falklands are a British overseas territory and 99.9 per cent of islanders want to stay British. 'We have said very clearly there will be no discussions about sovereignty. The New British Airways First Class Seat 'For the flag carrier airline to give Port Stanley another name is unforgivable.' Lord West, whose HMS Ardent was sunk by Argentine forces, added: 'I don't know why they would do it. 'Everyone on the Falkland Islands calls it Port Stanley. 'They should change it back as soon as possible. 'This is insulting to the population of Port Stanley.' In all, 255 British personnel lost their lives defending the islands. In 2017 Argentina's senate voted to rename Port Stanley as Puerto Argentino and celebrate Sovereignty Day there if it is ever recaptured. The in-flight map shows only the names of world capitals and not countries' names. It means BA does not reference the Falklands by its Argentinian name Islas Malvinas. British Airways' parent company, International Airlines Group, is based in Spain. A BA spokeswoman said: 'We are grateful this has been brought to our attention. 'We'll be reviewing it with the third party supplier that provides the in-flight map service.'
