The case of the tramway company Anglo-Argentina reveals that the British capital in public services, although predominant, was far from having a hegemonic presence in the sector.
The Anglo-Argentine Tramways Co. Ltd. was a British company that provided services in Buenos Aires between 1876 and early 1950's.
In 1907 the company was acquired by
Compagnie Generale des Tramways de Buenos Aires
, a Belgian company that belonged to SOFINA (Société Financière des Transports et d'Entreprises Industrielles), an international holding company based in Belgium and investment in urban transport and energy
power worldwide.
Although the company continued to shareholders and debenture British SOFINA took control of its board.

El caso de la Compañía de Tranvías Anglo-Argentina revela que el capital británico en los servicios públicos, si bien predominante, estuvo lejos de tener una presencia hegemónica en el sector. La Anglo-Argentine Tramways Co. Ltd. fue una compañía británica que prestó servicios en Buenos Aires entre 1876 y principios de la década de 1950. Ya en 1907 esta empresa fue absorbida por la
Compagnie Générale des Tramways de Buenos Aires
, una empresa belga que perteneció a SOFINA (Société Financière des Transports et d' Entreprises Industrielles), un holding internacional con sede en Bélgica e inversiones en transportes urbanos y energía eléctrica en todo el mundo. Aunque la compañía siguió teniendo accionistas y debenturistas británicos, SOFINA tomó el control de su directorio. (13)

The Belgian Compañíe General des Tramways de la Citè de Buenos Ayres took over the Anglo-Argentine Tramways Company in 1908 and standardised much of the network, though many Argentine companies such as the Lacroze Company remained.[6] In the early 1900s the network expanded rapidly as a result of electrification and by the mid-1920s the system has reached its maximum extension of 875km with 3,000 vehicles carrying 650 million passengers a year on 99 lines serviced by 12,000 employees.[6] At the same time, some of the tramways began moving underground when the Anglo-Argentine Tramways Company opened the Buenos Aires Underground's Line A in 1913, becoming the first underground rail in Latin America, the southern hemisphere and the Spanish speaking world.[
