On 19 August 2026, Alejandro Guin-Po Bon, Hacienda's macroeconomic coordinator, told Radio ADN that MEPCO — Chile's fuel-price stabilization law — is holding back roughly CLP 100 per liter on gasoline and CLP 250 per liter on diesel. The next advertised pass-through is about CLP 30 (gasoline) and CLP 90 (diesel). The fiscal bill for this cycle, late July into early September, is about US$550 million; this week's operation alone was about US$50 million, with coming weeks near US$70 million per period.
