After a period of positive fiscal results during years 2003 to 2005, the City of Buenos Aires faces challenges in its fiscal situation as of year 2006, which surely will be reflected in exercise 2007. During the period the 2003- 2005 City accumulated positive financial results near $1,800 million, starts off of which, $418 million, they were destined to the Stabilization Fund created in 2003 by Decree of the Executive authority. The estimations made by the Executive authority on the closing of exercise 2006 at the time of presenting the Project of Budget 2007 show a negative result of -$1,096 million, the contained negative result in Budget 2007 bases similar originally elevated by the Executive to the Legislature, and later modified in the parliamentary approval. As opposed to an electoral year, where the pressures on the public expenditure usually increase, it is precise to strengthening the institutionalization and transparency of the Buenos Aires City Stabilization Fund.
