BB and Caixa decide to leave Febraban because they disagree with the political position

Banco do Brasil and Caixa Econômica Federal intend to leave Febraban (Brazilian Federation of Banks) due to their disagreement with the company – which is privately owned – taking a political position. The decision was brought to the attention of Economy Minister Paulo Gedes and the President. Jair Bolsonaro (no party).

Febraban, a representative of the country’s banking sector, intends to issue a manifesto next Tuesday (31) asking for harmony between the three powers. This was reported by sources heard by Estadão.

Disagreeing with the federation, both Caixa and the federal government-controlled BB would send Febraban a note stating that they would leave the organization if the manifesto were published.

According to Estadão, the initiative to issue a manifesto was approved by the institution and received majority support.

The issue has been debated for about a week, but Caixa and BB are opposed to a request for approval from the legislative, executive and judicial branches, while President Jair Bolsonaro (not a party) has publicly attacked other powers.

Without quoting Bolsonaro or Gedes, the manifesto was interpreted as a criticism of the federal administration, as urgent action would be on its agenda so that Brazil could overcome the pandemic and create jobs.

The decision to break with Febraban was taken by Caixa President Pedro Guimaraes, who maintains a close relationship with President Bolsonaro, according to Estadão.

Both Caixa and Banco do Brasil would dispute a specific part of the manifesto, according to Estadão, which speaks of “serious concern” about “escalating tensions and hostility between state authorities.”

O UOL contacted Caixa, who confirmed Febraban’s possible exit. Caixa and Febraban provided no feedback on this at the time of this posting.

The dollar continues to reflect the political scenario

Yesterday, financial agents evaluated the opposite decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) regarding the so-called secret budget. In addition, a decision was made by STF Minister Gilmar Méndez to issue an injunction that would exclude the Bolsa Família from the spending cap rule, with investors trying to understand how this measure would affect the processing of the transitional PEC in the Chamber of Deputies. Oh this PEC!!!!

Since he is an exchange investor, any reading that the budget will be exceeded or become more flexible will negatively affect the exchange market, whether through the PEC or in any other way. We will continue with volatility today.

Looking beyond, the US Central Bank (Fed), although slowing down the pace of monetary tightening at its December meeting, issued a tougher-than-expected statement warning that its fight against inflation was not yet over, raising fears that rising US interest rates will push the world’s largest economy into recession.

The currency market continues to react to political news. The voting on the PEC is saved for today. It is expected that it will indeed be reviewed to open the way tomorrow for discussions on the 2023 budget.

Yesterday, the spot price closed the selling day at R$5.3103.

For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

Germany sentenced Russian to life imprisonment for political murder by order of Moscow - 12/15/2021
BRUSSELS, DECEMBER 19 (ANSA). European Union countries reached a political agreement on Monday (19) to impose a natural gas price ceiling of 180 euros per megawatt hour (MWh). The main sources of income for Russia and the minimization of the use of energy as a weapon by the regime of Vladimir Putin.

The agreement was approved by a supermajority at a ministerial meeting of member states in Brussels, Belgium, after months of discussions about the best way to contain the rise in natural gas prices in the bloc caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. .

The value set by the countries is well below the proposal made by the European Commission, the EU’s executive body, in November: 275 EUR/MWh. However, the countries leading the cap campaign were in favor of an even lower limit, around 100 EUR/MWh.

Germany, always wary of price controls, voted in favor of 180 euros, while Austria and the Netherlands, also skeptical of the cap, abstained. Hungary, the most pro-Russian country in the EU, voted against.

The instrument will enter into force on 15 February, but only if natural gas prices on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange exceed 180 euros/MWh for three consecutive days. In addition, the difference compared to a number of global benchmarks should be more than 35 euros.

Italy, the EU’s biggest supporter of the ceiling, has claimed responsibility for the measure. “This is a victory for Italy, which believed and worked for us to reach this agreement,” Environment and Energy Minister Gilberto Picetto tweeted.

“This is a victory for Italian and European citizens who demand energy security,” he added.
