The federal government made available this Wednesday (7) a tool that allows investors who want to buy direct treasury public titles to use Pix as a payment method.
Through the “Cad&Pag” program —a new tool available that merges a simplified registration with payment via Pix—, investors can purchase public securities without the need to go to a financial institution or brokerage, being able to make the purchase directly on the official website of the National Treasury.
According to the government, Cad&Pag promises that the registration process, choice of investment modality and payment will be completed in less than five minutes.
The agility resides in the integration of the Direct Treasury system to the gov.br platform, which will use the information available there to connect the investor to the preferred financial institution. “The new simplified registration is a feature that facilitates the registration of new investors in the program, allowing the first investment to be made easily and quickly”, highlights the note from the Ministry of Economy.
However, the account on the government website must meet a minimum level of reliability — the Silver level. If you do not have it, the investor will be forwarded to the gov.br platform to complement the account with additional information.
According to the National Treasury, the only Pix key accepted to invest in public securities is the one linked to the account holder’s CPF, as a way to guarantee more security to the process.
Created in 2002, the National Treasury broke a record last October, with the total balance of securities on the market in the hands of individuals surpassing the R$ 100 billion mark.
The high demand for public securities is associated with the high level of the Selic rate, of 13.75% pa, the highest in six years. The expectation is that more investors will be attracted to the National Treasury with the ease of making payments via Pix.
