Nicaragua Orders Mass Transfer of 36 Properties to Social Security Institute

A significant transfer of assets has been ordered in Nicaragua, with authorities directing the mass transfer of 36 properties to the Nicaraguan Social Security Institute (INSS). The presidential decrees authorizing these actions were published on June 19, 2026, in the official gazette, La Gaceta.

President Daniel Ortega and Vice President Rosario Murillo, referred to as "co-dictators" in the source, authorized the Attorney General's Office to facilitate the handover. The properties are situated across eight different departments of the country and are being formally designated as "donations" to the INSS.

This move is part of a broader pattern of asset transfers to the INSS. The article suggests that such donations have become a recurring practice, raising questions about the management and destination of these state-controlled assets. The scale of this latest transfer underscores the government's ongoing actions regarding property and social security resources.
