Brazil’s Tesouro Direto program reached a historic milestone in August 2026, recording R$ 15 billion in investments through 1.32 million operations. This represents the highest monthly volume since the program’s inception.

Despite the record gross volume, the month experienced a negative net inflow of R$ 2.21 billion. This was driven by redemptions and bond maturities totaling R$ 17.22 billion, primarily due to the maturity of Tesouro IPCA+ 2026 bonds (R$ 11.3 billion) and Tesouro IPCA+ with Semiannual Interest 2026 (R$ 1.5 billion).

Investor preference leaned toward Selic-indexed bonds, which accounted for 46.9% of sales, followed by inflation-indexed bonds at 36.3% and fixed-rate bonds at 16.7%. The program maintains high accessibility for small-scale investors, with 55.7% of applications being for amounts up to R$ 1,000. The total program stock ended August at R$ 272 billion, a 43% increase compared to August 2025.
