The household consumption is the engine behind GDP growth, representing approximately 60% of total demand. The reopening of the economy in 2022 helped stimulate household spending on various services, such as restaurants, hotels, transportation, and small businesses.

The economic recovery was the pledge for families to restore their lives to normalcy. In summary, the results certainly show that the year 2022 brought a positive whirlwind to all those who trusted in the Brazilian economy.

Consumption in Brazil experienced an increase last year, due to the response of the labor market and the strategies adopted by the Bolsonaro government, such as Auxílio Brasil and tax cuts. However, high interest rates, strained inflation, and elevated debt levels were factors that limited a greater recovery.
IBGE revealed on Thursday that productive investments in the Brazilian economy rose by 0.9% in 2022, dropping from 18.9% to 18.8%, while the savings rate fell from 17.4% to 15.9%. The formation of GDP was also influenced by exports (up by 5.5%), imports (up by 0.8%), and government consumption (growth of 1.5%).
Thus, the overall scenario gradually proved to be more positive for the country. The measures adopted were decisive for such a promising result – they served as a true beacon that guided the Brazilian ship through the storm of the crisis. Therefore, it was possible to observe that investments followed the upward trend of the hope of Brazilians for better days. The success of the recovery forecasted bright and warm days for the near future.

However, three components of this account indicated different results: investments (-1.1%), exports (+3.5%), and imports (-1.9%). In agriculture, there was a timid growth of 0.3% while the overall industry saw a gradual decline of 0.3%.
In services, a slight increase of 0.2% was noted. According to Rebeca Palis, coordinator of National Accounts at IBGE, “investments were particularly affected by the manufacturing industry [-1.4%]. In the Industry, the only increases were in Extractive Industries due to oil extraction.”
Among the segments of Services, Information and Communication (1.8%), Other Service Activities (0.9%), and Financial Activities stood out. On the other hand, Trade and Public Administration recorded declines of -0.9% and -0.5%, respectively. Thus, it is possible to affirm that the fourth quarter of last year was marked by a slight rise in services and agriculture and an expected recession in the industry.
