Minister Fernando Haddad’s victories and defeats in 2023

– Episode of the 15 Minutos podcast takes stock of the 2023 of Fernando Haddad, the head of the Lula Government’s economy.

*) Every time a new government takes office, there is always great expectation to know who will be the head of the economic area.

It was at the beginning of December 2022 that the then transitional government announced that Fernando Haddad would be the Minister of Finance.

He took office in January 2023. And the year that passed was, yes, one of victories. But it was also full of difficulties and defeats.

The approval of the fiscal framework was celebrated, of course. Just like tax reform. Despite this, there is great uncertainty among economists about meeting the target of zeroing the primary deficit in 2024.

The dehydration of projects by parliamentarians and the risk of judicialization of tax collection measures go against the economic team’s projections for an improvement in the fiscal framework from next year.

This episode of 15 Minutes podcast takes stock of the 2023 of Fernando Haddad, the head of the Lula Government’s economy. The guest is the Célio Yano, from the Economics team at Gazeta do Povo.
