Chilean Congress Approves Core Fiscal Reform, Property Tax Exemption Delayed
The Chilean Congress has approved the core components of President Kast's 'Mega-reform' package, marking a significant legislative victory. However, specific provisions, notably property tax exemptions for citizens over 65 and the municipal common fund compensation mechanism, have been referred to a mixed committee due to legislative disputes, primarily with the PDG caucus. The government has also signaled plans for a new, unspecified tax reform.
