Brazilian digital economy and technology trends
Overview
The Brazilian economic landscape is seeing significant technological integration across the financial and retail sectors. In the banking industry, institutions are projected to invest R$ 50.4 billion in technology by 2026, with approximately R$ 3 billion dedicated to artificial intelligence, analytics, and big data. This shift is driven by a high volume of digital transactions, which accounted for 83% of banking operations in 2025.
Simultaneously, the e-commerce sector is experiencing growth, with Black Friday 2026 revenues projected to reach R$ 13.3 billion. While this represents a 20.7% increase from the previous year, retailers are navigating challenges including a decline in average ticket size and consumer uncertainty related to the election cycle. Artificial intelligence is also becoming a key component in the retail journey, specifically aiding in product discovery and price comparison.
