The Argentine software and computer services sector (SSI) has been active for two decades, driven by public policies and international outsourcing. However, growth in the sector has currently stagnated. This stalling is the result of the extractivism of capacities that operate in three ways: price-salaries, training and financial. The first explanation is the growing competition for costs resulting in contractions of wages and benefits. The second is capacity building that is geared to the requirements of international demand in standardized skills. The third is the financial valuation of the undertakings. This article builds a set of statistical information that enables this phenomenon for the Argentine case to be described and documented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
