The rebalancing removes key regulatory overhang and provides long-term visibility on cash flows, with a clear capex schedule and tariff increases. Monitor the 2027–2031 deployment of the $1.5B investment program and any triennial review outcomes for further adjustments.

Executive Summary
Corporación América Airports (CAAP) announced that the Argentine government approved a rebalancing of its concession agreement, extending the term by 18 years (to February 2056), authorizing a $7.3 billion capital investment program (with $1.5 billion due by 2031), and increasing domestic passenger fees to $9.00 by January 2027. The concession fee remains at 15% of gross revenues, tariffs are now USD-denominated, and the agreed IRR is 14.30%.
Key Facts
- Concession term extended by 18 years (11 years for economic equilibrium + 7 years for $600M direct investments), now expiring February 2056.
- Total capital investment program of approximately $7.3 billion (incl. VAT), with ~$1.5 billion to be deployed 2027–2031.
- Direct capital investments not funded by trusts total $600 million.
- Concession fee remains at 15% of gross revenues.
- Domestic Passenger Use Fee will increase to $9.00 by January 1, 2027.
- Regional Passenger Use Fee ($25.16) applicability expanded from 300 km to 1,000 km flights by January 1, 2027.
- All passenger tariffs now denominated in U.S. dollars.
- Agreed IRR on the economic and financial plan is 14.30%.
- Triennial reviews will update projections and potentially adjust terms to maintain equilibrium.
Financial Impact
Concession extension adds 18 years of revenue generation; $7.3B capex program with $600M direct CAAP investment; domestic fee hike to $9.00 and regional fee expansion boost tariff revenue; USD-denominated tariffs eliminate FX risk on Argentine revenue.
Risk Factors
- Execution risk on the $7.3B capital investment program, particularly the $600M direct CAAP commitment.
- Political risk in Argentina — future governments could renegotiate terms despite the administrative decision.
- Triennial reviews may introduce unfavorable changes if economic conditions shift.
