Podcast: Brazil’s credit score improves – Folha – 07/31/2023 – Podcasts

Despite being difficult, conditions in Brazil are not intractable —if there is seriousness and persistence in carrying out reforms and controlling public accounts. That’s what the new note from the risk rating agency Fitch means: BB. Last week, the agency improved the country’s position, as S&P had already done.

Brazil, however, is maintained at the so-called speculative grade, below investment grade, which was lost in 2015. Sheetreturning to this level of confidence depends on more structural reforms, policies to support private investment and stabilization of the public debt.

The improvement in the perception of the economic environment in the country has also been internal. The drop in prices and the unemployment rate also makes it visible in the daily life of the population.

This Monday’s episode (31) of Café da Manhã analyzes the country’s current economic environment and how it is being seen abroad. The podcast interviews Fabio Pupo, reporter for Sheet in Brasilia.
