  • Brazil's Largest Private Banks: an Economic and Sociopolitical Profile
    Sociologias vol.3 no.se Porto Alegre 2007 Brazil’s largest private banks: an economic and sociopolitical ∗∗∗ profile Ary Cesar Minella Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (Federal University of Santa Catarina). Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This study examines elements of the power of financial institutions, emphasizing control over capital flow – characterized as financial hegemony – the constitution of economic or financial groups, the structure of representation of the segment's class interests, and its participation in the political process and in State decision-making mechanisms. Considering the economic restructuring undergone by Brazil in the 1990s, the work draws a profile of the ten largest private banks based on selected economic and sociopolitical indicators. Beyond their stance as mere financial intermediaries, it indicates the degree to which those banks become economic groups and, especially, larger organizational units, which is shown in connections with the State and in the class's actual organization and actions in the corporate and political realms. Key words: Financial system, bank concentration, financial groups, financial hegemony, class representation. Introduction To discuss the theme of this issue’s dossier, it is important to consider the role of the financial system in the process of wealth concentration in Brazil in recent years. With a relatively high degree of concentration of financial operations in a few state and private institutions, the financial system has made use of several mechanisms to accumulate wealth. The importance of each mechanism has varied ∗ This work is related to the research project " América Latina: uma visão sociopolítica das transformações e das perspectivas do sistema financeiro – III etapa " (Latin America: a sociopolitical view on the changes and prospects of the financial system – stage 3), with support from CNPq (Brazilian National Council of Research).

  • A “Brazilian Way”? Brazil's Approach to Peacebuilding
    ORDER from CHAOS Foreign Policy in a Troubled World GEOECONOMICS AND GLOBAL ISSUES PAPER 5 | FEBRUARY 2017 A “Brazilian way”? Brazil’s approach to peacebuilding CHARLES T. CALL ADRIANA ERTHAL ABDENUR ABOUT THE ORDER FROM CHAOS PROJECT In the two decades following the end of the Cold War, the world experienced an era charac- terized by declining war and rising prosperity. The absence of serious geopolitical competi- tion created opportunities for increased interdependence and global cooperation. In recent years, however, several and possibly fundamental challenges to that new order have arisen— the collapse of order and the descent into violence in the Middle East; the Russian challenge to the European security order; and increasing geopolitical tensions in Asia being among the foremost of these. At this pivotal juncture, U.S. leadership is critical, and the task ahead is urgent and complex. The next U.S. president will need to adapt and protect the liberal international order as a means of continuing to provide stability and prosperity; develop a strategy that encourages cooperation not competition among willing powers; and, if neces- sary, contain or constrain actors seeking to undermine those goals. In response to these changing global dynamics, the Foreign Policy Program at Brookings has established the Order from Chaos Project. With incisive analysis, new strategies, and in- novative policies, the Foreign Policy Program and its scholars have embarked on a two-year project with three core purposes: • To analyze the dynamics in the international system that are creating stresses, challeng- es, and a breakdown of order. • To define U.S.

  • The Week in Review on the ECONOMIC FRONT GDP: the Brazilian Statistics Agency (IBGE) Announced That GDP Growth for the Second Quarter Totaled 1.5%
    POLICY MONITOR August 26 – 30 , 2013 The Week in Review ON THE ECONOMIC FRONT GDP: The Brazilian Statistics Agency (IBGE) announced that GDP growth for the second quarter totaled 1.5%. This year, GDP grew by 2.1%. Interest Rate: The Monetary Policy Committee (COPOM) of the Central Bank unanimously decided to raise interest rates by 0.5% to 9%--the fourth increase in a row. The Committee will hold two more meetings this year. Market analysts expect interest rates to rise by at least one more point to 10%. Strikes: Numerous groups of workers are under negotiations with the government for salary adjustments. Among those are regulatory agencies, national transportation department (DNIT), and livestock inspectors. DNIT workers have been on strike since June and livestock inspectors begun their strike on Thursday. On Friday, union workers will hold demonstrations throughout the country. Tourism: A study conducted by the Ministry of Tourism showed that the greatest cause of discontent for tourists coming to Brazil was high prices. The second most important reason was telecommunication services. Airport infrastructure, safety, and public transportation did not bother tourists as much and were ranked below both issues. Credit Protection: The Agency for Credit Protection Services (SPC Brasil) announced that the largest defaulting groups are in the middle class (Brazilian Class C). Forty-seven percent of all defaults are within Class C, 34% in Class B, and 13% in Class D. Forty-six percent of respondents claim to have been added to the list of default due to credit card payment delays and 40% due to bank loans.

A realização de entrevistas orais com personalidades que contribuíram para a sua construção faz parte da memória dessa Instituição, que tão intimamente se vincula à trajetória econômica do país. Essas entrevistas são apresentadas nesta Coleção História Contada do Banco Central do Brasil, que complementa iniciativas anteriores. É um privilégio poder apresentar esta Coleção. As entrevistas realizadas permitem não apenas um passeio pela história, mas também vivenciar as crises, os conflitos, as escolhas realizadas e as opiniões daqueles que deram um período de suas vidas pela construção do Brasil. Ao mesmo tempo, constituem material complementar às fontes históricas tradicionais. O conjunto de depoimentos demonstra claramente o processo de construção do Banco Central como instituição de Estado, persistente no cumprimento de sua missão. A preocupação com a edificação de uma organização com perfil técnico perpassa a todos os entrevistados. Ao mesmo tempo em que erguiam a estrutura, buscavam adotar as medidas de política econômica necessárias ao atingimento de sua missão. É evidente, também, a continuidade de projetos entre as diversas gestões, viabilizando construções que transcendem os mandatos de seus dirigentes.

They sense that this future is not something distant in time and abstract: it begins now, always at the moment in which one’s feet, previously on the deck of a ship, in the uncertainty (and infinite possibilities) of the sea, touch the well-trodden stones of the quay, as in a famous samba song. For many of the men and women who have arrived at the Port of Rio de Janeiro over time, the future and its possibilities often seemed uncertain. However, despite the inevitably One of the greatest legacies of the revitalization unpromising setting, it was these men and of Rio’s port region is certainly the opportunity women who to a large extent built the city of to reexamine this history.

We know it was the world’s biggest entry port for African slaves, and as a result we are well aware of what tomorrow and its possibilities may represent. Above all, we recognize its creative and transformational power.
