The story

Aeropuertos Argentina 2000 (AA2000) was established in February 1998 as a consortium by securing a 30-year contract with an option to extend it for 10 additional years which based in Buenos Aires. At its inception, the company's ownership was divided among Corporacion America Sudamericana led by Eduardo Eurnekian (35%), Ogden Corporation (28%), Societa Per Azioni Esercizi Aeroportuali (28%), Simest Spa Italy (8%), and RIVA (1%). The concession was operating under a Build–Operate–Transfer (BOT) system, with an investment commitment of $2.2 billion over the concession period and an annual license fee of $171.2 million. These funds have primarily been directed toward major upgrade projects, including the development of new passenger terminals at the Ezeiza International Airport and Córdoba Airport, as well as the expansion of the San Carlos de Bariloche Airport.
