However, he acknowledged that the main challenge lies in designing a fair, viable and transparent mechanism to apply this segmentation without generating exclusions or distortions.\n\nFilpo admitted that, although the focus has been proposed on multiple occasions, its implementation remains complex, due to the difficulty of precisely identifying the beneficiaries and ensuring that the aid reaches exclusively those who require it.\n\nThe businessman’s statements come at a time when different sectors are analyzing the impact of state subsidies on the national economy and debating the sustainability of these measures in the face of prolonged uncertainty scenarios.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
