• Trustworthiness of institutions: Very highpublic compliance with voluntary quarantine andadherence to social distancing measures. Strongdemocratic tradition meant citizens trusted publicofficials´ guidance and health recommendations.
• Socially stable country with relatively lowinequality, low informality and a broad socialinsurance net: Efficient work of automaticstabilizers provide income and healthcaresupport, allowing Uruguayans to act on theircommitment to voluntary distancing with no civilunrest─ aided by the country´s low urbanpopulation density.
• Fiscal transparency and accountability andmature political system: Congress created byLaw the “COVID-19 Solidarity Fund” (votedunanimously by all parties), to be managed by theExecutive branch. The Fund clearly earmarks theresources and budgetary expenditures to addressthe emergency, keeping tabs of the Covid-relatedexpenditures and where and how the money isspent.

Labour market formality compared to Latam
• Given the COVID-19 containment measures, both sickness and unemployment insurance became a crucial policy instrument tobroadly and orderly cope with the health emergency and its fallout. Developed welfare system for working-age people in Uruguayconsists of near-universal access to healthcare, unemployment insurance, sickness insurance, and child and familiy benefits.
• The sharp increase in health insurance beneficiaries in March was mainly driven by the government's proactive policy of providing wagecompensation through sick leave to all elderly workers (over 65 years old) in the public and private sector, so that could stay at home.

13
Fiscal austerity measures introduced through a Presidential decree on March 11th, that have remained in place despite Covid-19:
• Reduction of discretionary spending and more efficient budgetexecution: ministries must save 15% on operating, investmentand administrative expenses.

• Reduction in tax expenditures: reduced VAT exemptions oncredit and debit cards purchases.
The government is forging ahead with an ambitious reform agenda backed by political majority in Congress
14
Despite the Covid-19 outbreak, the Government moved forward andsubmitted to Parliament an omnibus bill (“Urgent Consideration Law”),including a spate of structural and fiscal reforms:
• new fiscal framework to ensure sustainable finances over the mediumterm: fiscal rule to account for business cycle (structural balance) andgovernment spending capped by potential GDP growth.
• new governance policies for public enterprises;
• establishment of a commission of experts to make proposals for acomprehensive pension reform;
• microeconomic reforms to boost potential GDP and improve businessclimate and competitiveness (changes in the regulatory framework forenergy markets and promotion of competition in non-tradable sectors).

• Once the epidemic recedes, the Central Bank will focus ondisinflation strategy as its overriding objective, planning to:o tighten monetary policy to anchor inflation expectations within
inflation target.
o re-assess the policy instrument with the possibility to revert to theshort term reference rate to improve signals to economic agents.
• Monetary authority`s commitment to break inflation expectationsinertia and new wage-setting guidelines for the private sectorthat prioritize employment creation, should reinforce disinflationpressures as softer economic activity cools down priceincreases.
New communication strategy and developing the FX derivative markets
18
• In the Monetary Policy Committee in April, 2020, the CentralBank introduced innovations to its communication andtransparency strategy:
oDoubled the frequency of its Monetary Policy Committee(MPC) meetings to better react to rapidly evolving conditions.
o Started publishing minutes of the MPC to provide more clarity.
oRelaunch of the economic expectations survey, significantlyincreasing the number of respondents.
• Further actions to develop the FX derivative market: createrepository of OTC transactions to provide more transparency,availability and efficient price discovery on FX hedging markets.
