BCB

  • About BCB
    The Central Bank of Brazil (BCB)'s institutional mission is to ensure the purchasing power stability of the currency and the soundness and efficiency of the National Financial System (SFN). With regard to price stability, the BCB considers that the best contribution of monetary policy to sustainable economic growth, low unemployment and improvement in people’s living conditions is to keep inflation low, stable and predictable—in light of the international and domestic experience. In parallel, BCB defines financial stability as the regular operation, over time and in any economic scenario, of the system responsible for the financial intermediation among households, non-financial corporations, and the government. The BCB's regulatory prerogative as financial supervisor is shared with the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), in conformity with their respective regulatory scopes.
