Yet investment decisions require a long-term perspective, which makes news of the day, week or even month of relative importance. While a forum on this scale offers the perfect venue for the big picture, potential investors would be wise to be wary of generalizations and concentrate strictly on their sector. Potential investors should also keep an eye on the evolution of tax reform in the near future — the current system overburdens companies while exempting the financial sector and dividends, an imbalance which might well be corrected before too long. Returning to legal security, in its quest for productive investments, the Macri government might try being a little less understanding towards tax evaders and capitalists attracted by tax havens. Legal security also requires governments with firm principles against such toxic capitalism.
