José María Nuñez Carmona
Argentinian businessman

José María Nuñez Carmona is an Argentinian businessman and entrepreneur who is a business partner and close friend of Amado Boudou, the Vice President of Argentina. He is one of the principals in the Boudougate scandal, which has been described by the Argentina Independent as “a messy tangle of crossed accusations.” The case involves the printing firm Calcográfica Ciccone, which has done many printing jobs for the Argentinian government, including the printing of money. The firm was bought in September 2010 by The Old Fund, a company run by Núñez Carmona's friend Alejandro Vandenbroele, and it was charged that Vandenbroele was in fact a front for Boudou and Núñez Carmona, with the latter acting as a middleman in the secret acquisition of the printing firm, whose name was changed after the purchase to Compañía de Valores Sudamericana (CVS).
Núñez Carmona is nicknamed “Nariga.”
Early life and education
He attended Instituto Arzobispo José Antonio de San Alberto in Mar del Plata, where he was a classmate and close friend of Boudou.
Career
Beginning in 1997, he and Boudou owned a real-estate firm called Inversiones Inmobiliarias Aspen. He and Boudou were also partners in a firm called Habitat Natural. This firm, established on August 4, 2010, was purportedly involved in the “construction, alteration and repair of buildings.” According to a 2011 news report by Jorge Lanata, the firm was not known to have actually been involved in any construction or other activities as of that date, but in March 2011 its capital stock increased in value from 40,000 to 720,000 pesos.
Núñez Carmona also owned a firm called Action Media, which earned a great deal of money from government advertising. Founded in October 2005 by Sandra Rizzo and Cesar Forcieli, the firm made nearly a million dollars in ad income from Telam, the Argentinian government's official news agency. Núñez Carmon was tried for attempting to bribe a manager of Telam in 2008, but was acquitted.

Why this record matters
The phrase “argentinian businessman” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q21062602. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2010, 1997, 2011 and 2005.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
