Importance Of The Extension Of The Automotive Regime For Regional Development
The governors of the Northeast Consortium, a legal, political, and economic mechanism that unites the nine states of Brazil’s northeastern region, expressed their strong support for the maintenance and extension of the Automotive Regime. This policy is seen as essential for the economic and social development of the Northeast, especially in the context of the imminent vote on the Tax Reform (PEC 45) in the Chamber of Deputies.
Tax Reform And Balanced Development
The Tax Reform, which aims to modernize the Brazilian tax system, represents a crucial moment for the country. With the proposal to establish broader horizons for national economic organization, the full inclusion of Article 19, dedicated to the Automotive Regime, becomes a focal point. This regime is an effective regional development policy that has significantly contributed to the industrialization of the Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil.
The constitutional text under discussion recognizes the value of the Automotive Regime as a funding mechanism, using the structuring potential of the automotive sector to accelerate industrialization. Through the formation of local productive arrangements, this regime enables active integration into national and international production chains. It stands out as a policy correcting historical distortions, offering a pathway to a more just and territorially distributed development model.

Industrial And Social Impact Of The Automotive Regime
The adoption of the Automotive Regime has boosted the establishment of vehicle and component manufacturers in areas lacking job opportunities, generating positive results throughout Brazil. These companies, by setting up in regions that most need development, not only modernize the Brazilian automotive market but also contribute to the national industrialization project.
The income injection in industrializing areas, resulting from this regime, has been fundamental in changing the social profile of the territory. There are significant advances in economic, education, health, safety, and employability indicators, demonstrating the positive impact of this policy.
The full approval of Article 19 of the Tax Reform PEC is seen as crucial for the continuity of investments and the expansion of productive chains. This represents a conscious and decisive step towards building a robust national industry that not only drives regional development but also contributes to the sustainable expansion of the Brazilian economy.
The Commitment Of The Northeast Consortium
The Northeast Consortium remains committed to maintaining a productive dialogue with the National Congress. The aim is to build a Constitutional Amendment Proposal that not only fulfills its social and economic role for sustainable development but also contributes to reducing inequalities in the country.
The governors of the Northeast, led by João Azevêdo Lins Filho, emphasize the regional commitment to seeking policies that favor balanced and sustainable growth throughout Brazil, highlighting the strategic importance of the Automotive Regime in the Tax Reform for the country’s future.
