The second echelon of Central Bank (BC) employees wrote an open letter to senators reaffirming their commitment to the institution and expressing full support for the Proposed Amendment to the Constitution (PEC) 65, which establishes the BC’s budgetary, financial, administrative and operational autonomy.
“Pix, a public asset of the Brazilian State and a global reference, needs to be preserved and strengthened. In order for it to continue to evolve and serve society, it is essential to guarantee it adequate human and budgetary resources on a permanent basis”, they emphasized.
The document is signed by the executive secretary, department heads and chiefs of staff of the board and presidency of the municipality. Of this BC elite, only the magistrate and the two heads of the Prosecutor’s Office did not sign the document due to the activities carried out at the institution. The president of the BC, Gabriel Galípolo, and the board of directors of the monetary authority also defend PEC 65.
The Constitution and Justice Committee (CCJ) of the Senate should consider the text this Wednesday, 10th, after a period of back and forth. The rapporteur of the proposal, senator Plínio Valério (PSDB-AM) has already read the final document and a request for views has been made.
BC employees claim that advances in financial inclusion, with millions of Brazilians incorporated into the financial system and the significant increase in supervised institutions, require broader and more rigorous supervision. “Staff reductions in recent years, however, threaten the Central Bank’s ability to keep up with this growth and preserve the country’s financial stability,” they wrote.
For BC employees, the text presented by the rapporteur provides the necessary conditions to face these challenges. “It strengthens the institutional autonomy of the Central Bank, ensuring that our actions remain technical and focused on the public interest. With contributions from different sectors of society, this debate has matured and the proposal has evolved. We understand that the time has come to move forward. Therefore, we express our full support for the rapporteur’s proposal and defend its immediate vote. We trust that the Senate of the Republic will recognize the importance of this decision for the future of the national financial system and for Brazil”, brings the text at the end.
