Government’s strategy for virus containment after
Covid-19 onset in Uruguay

• To slow the spread of the virus, the Government did not enforce a
countrywide lockdown or mandatory house confinement; rather, it trusted
citizens to adhere to voluntary social distancing and follow hygiene
protocols, by appealing to “individual freedom with social responsibility”.

• In parallel, the Government took early and decisive action and sealed off
land borders, closed air traffic except to chartered repatriation flights,
suspended all public events and school classes, limited visits to nursing
homes and encouraged citizens to stay home and telework.

• Effective coordinated response between public and private sector and


scientific community:
o strengthening the health care system and facilities, and medical equipment
o extensive randomized testing and community tracing in outbreak areas
(border with Brazil, nursing homes) and in reopening sectors (e.g.
construction, shopping centers).
o developing a roadmap for re-opening the economy in consultation with
scientific experts and private sector representatives.

So far, Uruguay is holding up well in the face of adversity:

Uruguay’s robust ESG features has underpinned steadfast
response to the pandemic, yet there is no room for complacency

ESG-adjusted EMBI benchmark


(Country weights for 73 countries, in %; as of April 30th, 2020)
• Trustworthiness of institutions: Very high
public compliance with voluntary quarantine and
Uruguay adherence to social distancing measures. Strong
5 democratic tradition meant citizens trusted public
officials´ guidance and health recommendations.

4 • Socially stable country with relatively low


inequality, low informality and a broad social
insurance net: Efficient work of automatic
stabilizers provide income and healthcare
3 support, allowing Uruguayans to act on their
commitment to voluntary distancing with no civil
unrest─ aided by the country´s low urban
population density.

• Fiscal transparency and accountability and


mature political system: Congress created by
1 Law the “COVID-19 Solidarity Fund” (voted
unanimously by all parties), to be managed by the
Executive branch. The Fund clearly earmarks the
resources and budgetary expenditures to address

• Given the COVID-19 containment measures, both sickness and unemployment insurance became a crucial policy instrument to
broadly and orderly cope with the health emergency and its fallout. Developed welfare system for working-age people in Uruguay
consists of near-universal access to healthcare, unemployment insurance, sickness insurance, and child and familiy benefits.

• The sharp increase in health insurance beneficiaries in March was mainly driven by the government's proactive policy of providing wage
compensation through sick leave to all elderly workers (over 65 years old) in the public and private sector, so that could stay at home.

The new government moved promptly on its pledge to
tackle the fiscal deficit through expenditure cuts

Fiscal austerity measures introduced through a Presidential decree


on March 11th, that have remained in place despite Covid-19:

• Reduction of discretionary spending and more efficient budget


execution: ministries must save 15% on operating, investment
and administrative expenses.

• Restrictions on public sector hiring: only one third of personnel


vacancies in the central government can be filled during the
year, except for teachers, health and security personnel.

• Reduction in tax expenditures: reduced VAT exemptions on


credit and debit cards purchases.

13
The government is forging ahead with an ambitious reform
agenda backed by political majority in Congress

Despite the Covid-19 outbreak, the Government moved forward and


submitted to Parliament an omnibus bill (“Urgent Consideration Law”),
including a spate of structural and fiscal reforms:

• new fiscal framework to ensure sustainable finances over the medium


term: fiscal rule to account for business cycle (structural balance) and
government spending capped by potential GDP growth.

• new governance policies for public enterprises;

• establishment of a commission of experts to make proposals for a


comprehensive pension reform;

• microeconomic reforms to boost potential GDP and improve business


climate and competitiveness (changes in the regulatory framework for
energy markets and promotion of competition in non-tradable sectors).

Enhancements to monetary policy framework
under the inflation targeting regime

• Once the epidemic recedes, the Central Bank will focus on


disinflation strategy as its overriding objective, planning to:
o tighten monetary policy to anchor inflation expectations within
inflation target.
o re-assess the policy instrument with the possibility to revert to the
short term reference rate to improve signals to economic agents.

• Monetary authority`s commitment to break inflation expectations


inertia and new wage-setting guidelines for the private sector
that prioritize employment creation, should reinforce disinflation
pressures as softer economic activity cools down price
increases.

17
New communication strategy and developing the FX
derivative markets

• In the Monetary Policy Committee in April, 2020, the Central


Bank introduced innovations to its communication and
transparency strategy:
o Doubled the frequency of its Monetary Policy Committee
(MPC) meetings to better react to rapidly evolving conditions.
o Started publishing minutes of the MPC to provide more clarity.
o Relaunch of the economic expectations survey, significantly
increasing the number of respondents.

• Further actions to develop the FX derivative market: create


repository of OTC transactions to provide more transparency,
availability and efficient price discovery on FX hedging markets.
