Bolivia’s economy, including its financial system, will undergo changes in 2020, regardless of who takes over the resource-rich country after the resignation of long-serving president Evo Morales.
Mr Morales resigned November 10, 2019 after calling a new vote and an overhaul of the election agency – three weeks after the original election in which he won a highly disputed fourth term with 47% of the vote, which his opponents claimed was fraudulent. The vice-president and leaders of the two chambers of Congress, all members of the Movement for Socialism party, resigned alongside the president.
