The Ministry of Social Development Published an Ordinance in the Official Gazette of the Union on Thursday, 9, Reducing the Monthly Discount Limit of the Brazil Aid Contracted by Payroll Loan from 40% to 5%. According to Law 10,820, amended by Congress last year, this reduction was established.
The Ordinance Established that the loan contracts in question are now to be completed in a maximum of six installments with an interest rate not exceeding 2.5%. This measure replaces the previous regulation, which ensured payment in up to 24 installments and allowed a maximum interest rate of 3.5%, with 3.45% being the rate usually stipulated.
The Federal Supreme Court (STF) questioned the Brazil Aid loan authorized by the government of Jair Bolsonaro; however, Minister Nunes Marques did not grant the injunction, and the program remained in effect. The President of the Federal Savings Bank, Rita Serrano, suspended the granting of new payroll loans to Brazil Aid beneficiaries on January 12. Families who have already taken out the Brazil Aid payroll loan will not be affected by this change.

According to data released by the BNDES, Cuba and Venezuela are among the most indebted countries. The projects financed by these loans funneled resources to companies involved in corruption scandals, such as Odebrecht, Camargo Corrêa, and OAS. These cases of misappropriation of resources led to a severe impact on the economy of these countries.
