Ernesto Tenembaum se la agarró con el Indec: "¿En qué están pensando estos tipos?"

Ernesto Tenembaum criticizes INDEC’s attempt to alter the publication date of inflation data in order to protect official candidates during provincial elections. He considers this strategy flawed and unserious, highlighting the institution’s historically low credibility and the disconnect between its figures and citizens’ perceptions of the cost of living. The relevance to open data lies in the urgency of ensuring transparency, independence, and reliability in public statistics. When authorities manipulate publication schedules, they undermine the integrity of data essential for accountability and informed decision-making in a democracy. Despite this methodological scandal, the article also points to the continued decline of the Central Bank’s reserves and the country’s dependence on external loans. This reinforces the need to critically monitor the quality of economic indicators, as their manipulation directly affects financial stability and public trust in state institutions.
