The project is 2021 and changes the BC autonomy rule. The text states that the president and the directors of the Central Bank will be dismissed if there is a request approved by the absolute majority of the House of Representatives “when the driving of the Central Bank activities is incompatible with national interests.” For this, the exoneration proposal will be conditional on the approval, by an absolute majority, of the Federal Senate.
With the autonomy of the BC, the directors had a four -year term. By today’s rules, only the President of the Republic can exonerate the BC summit in the following situations:
- Upon request;
- In case of involvement of disease that disables the holder for the exercise of the position;
- When they are convicted, by means of a final decision or rendered by a collegiate body, by the practice of an act of administrative misconduct or crime whose penalty, even temporarily, prohibition of access to public positions;
When they have proven and recurrent insufficient performance to achieve the objectives of the Central Bank of Brazil.

The initiative happens at a time when the BC is preparing to finalize the analysis of Banco’s purchase operation by BRB.
It is expected that the business analysis process between BRB and Master in BC will end this week. Responsible for the recommendation on the operation of the agency’s summit, the director of organization of the financial system and resolution, Renato Gomes, is the most reticent with the approval of the business, precisely because any future challenge of the transaction would fall on him personally.
According to the GLOBOthe reduction by half the perimeter of the operation, which, according to the last disclosure of BRB, will involve about $ 25 billion in assets, made the business more palatable. The main concern at this time is with the portion of the master that it will be left out of operation with BRB. The tendency, however, is sliced in several parts.
