MARIO, Agustín. La Asignación Universal por Hijo en Argentina a un lustro de su implementación: ¿Cuánto se pueden mejorar las condiciones de vida actuando sobre el sistema de asignaciones familiares?. Doc. aportes adm. pública gest. estatal [online]. 2015, n.24, pp.101-122. ISSN 1851-3727.

The aim of this paper is to analyze, through microsimulations, the direct impact of completing the coverage of the current system of family allowances and increasing the amount of the program on social well-being. The results show that the proposal would reduce poverty up to 40 %, indigence up to 64 % and the income gap between the 10th and 1st decile up to 27 %. Moreover, the modification would reduce the relative probability of indigence of those who live in the north, belong to large families or live in single parent households headed by women with children, for whom this probability would be, after the modification simulated, lower than that of their complement. In the regional dimension, it stands out that the direct impact of the reform on poverty would be higher in Greater Buenos Aires, where the majority of the poor population is located.
