Flávio Bolsonaro presidential campaign economic platform

Overview

The presidential campaign of Flávio Bolsonaro has outlined an economic agenda inspired by Argentine President Javier Milei’s model. Campaign economic coordinator Daniella Marques stated the platform aims to reduce bureaucracy, cut taxes, and restore market confidence through rapid fiscal adjustment.

Specific proposals include revoking over one thousand norms and taxes implemented under the current administration, specifically targeting taxes created or increased during Fernando Haddad’s tenure at the Ministry of Finance. Key measures involve returning the Tax on Financial Operations (IOF) to 2022 levels and eliminating the 12% export tax on petroleum. While the campaign has ruled out the privatization of Caixa Econômica Federal, its labor platform has faced criticism from Agência Sindical analysts. These critics argue the proposals promote deregulation and weaken collective bargaining, potentially leading to the “precarization of labor” and undermining the role of unions.
