Abstract

Este trabajo discute las opciones regulatorias existentes, en lo conceptual y según la experiencia internacional, para cumplir con los objetivos de una prestación eficiente, equitativa, sostenible y de calidad. Dichos mecanismos, en estado puro ofrecen ventajas y resuelven algunos problemas, pero tienen dificultades. A los mecanismos puros se suman variantes híbridas o mixtas. Un problema importante es el ajuste indexatorio de las tarifas, que en Argentina se complica por la legislación. En general, predominan en las ciudades argentinas mecanismos de costo de servicio con ajuste periódico y no automático de tarifas por polinómicas de costos. El mecanismo existente tiene pros y contras. Es conocido y simple, probado y fácil de administrar. Pero no alienta la innovación y el cambio tecnológico. Dados los problemas de caída secular de la demanda (sumada en el último año y medio a la prohibición de viajar a no esenciales por la pandemia), se proponen algunas soluciones regulatorias.
