Development prospects and challenges for Brazil

III Brazil Infrastructure Investments Forum October 2012 Joo Carlos Ferraz Vice President

Setting the scene: the Brazilian past

Almost 25 years of investment growing below to GDP rate.


12 years of total uncertainty and volatility 12 years of price stability and institutional reconstruction Since 2005 investments moving ahead of GDP

Short economic horizon, unstable rules, low confidence, no investment, no infrastructure

The heritage: sand on the wheel or where is the wheel?

Brazil: an emerging model on the way?


Consolidated democracy and strengthening of institutions Solid fundamentals and economic stability Expanding internal market: social and economic inclusion Advantages in much valued goods (food and energy) Upcoming: wide and attractive investment frontier The model: Modicidade tarifria The action: PAC and the return of the Phoenix Financing: strengthening of BNDES and an emerging interest of private industry Currently, a rare and most interesting consensus: investment (infrastructure) must lead the way to sustained growth

The map: demand driven, policy induced development


The internal market agenda Mass consumption: serve the aspirations of emerging middle classes. The external markets agenda Commodities for the inclusion of many

Infrastructures:
much needed resource and a source of demand

The government has the capacity to adapt plans, regulations and financial modes to societal needs and aspirations Plans: tenacity for effective implementation Regulations: evolving to provide welfare and investment security Financing: BNDES there but private sector crowd in is a must!

Challenges

Institutions: kaizen Efficiency: at all levels Competences: of all Savings and long term financing Infrastructure: much more & better

Unbalanced growth

Societal management of tensions, arising from unbalanced growth will be decisive
