Two main factors are driving this. First, because the social assistance programs—Jefes, Seguro, and Familias—are all closed to new entrants, the share of the poor left out of the programs is growing relative to the share receiving the benefits. Second, the radical scaling up of pension provided large transfers to parts of the population not at the bottom of the income distribution. 14.

When the economy faced a downturn at the end of the 1990s, poverty rates began to rise again. The sustained decline in GDP accelerated the fall of large parts of the population into poverty. The economic recovery brought back the poverty rate to mid-1990s levels. Extreme poverty followed a similar path, although at a lower level. 7. GDP, Poverty, and Inequality, 1980–2007 Sources: Ministry of Economy; INDEC Permanent Household Survey. Income inequality has worsened since the beginning of the 1990s.
The absence of a pre-established indexation rule for the pension benefits resulted in some changes in the structure of benefits. First, the gap between the average and the minimum benefit has narrowed since 2003 because of discretionary increases to the minimum benefit applied since then. Within a relatively short period, pensioners received flat increases, proportional increases, proportional increases with caps, and increases of the minimum benefit. As a result, the benefit pyramid became flatter, with more beneficiaries at the lower benefit levels.
