Discussion on new fiscal anchor needs to be deepened, says economist

In an interview with CNN this Wednesday (30), the economist and professor at Insper, Juliana Inhasz, said that discussions on a new fiscal anchor should be deepened.

“The market needs an answer on how these large expenses will be financed. We are not talking about a small amount of resources. The fiscal anchor, this new way of trying to gain credibility in this market is very important because it manages to make these agents look at the government’s position and manage to understand positive perspectives or formulate expectations from there, “he said.

The economist also assesses that the PEC of the PEC of the Explosion was thought of in a quick way and without the discussion that should exist around it.

On Tuesday (29), the Proposal for a Constitutional Amendment (PEC) to the Portuguese Constitution, proposed by the government transition team of President-elect Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), reached the minimum number of signatures necessary for the start of the procedure. and was registered in the Senate system.

The text maintained the original proposal to remove BRL 175 billion from the spending ceiling and leave a space of BRL 23 billion for investments, totaling BRL 198 billion.

Even so, interlocutors of the new government talk about discussing smaller amounts, of R$ 150 billion or less, and also considering the proposal of Senator Tasso Jereissati (PSDB), which does not remove Bolsa Família from the ceiling, but opens up space of R$ 80 billion on the ceiling.
