Staffing shortages in Brazilian financial institutions

Overview

Major Brazilian financial institutions are facing significant staffing shortages and challenges regarding recruitment processes.

As of July 2026, the Banco Central do Brasil (BCB) reported 3,160 vacancies, representing approximately 48.8% of its legally authorized positions. These gaps are primarily in auditor, technical, and legal roles. Although the Ministry of Management and Innovation in Public Services authorized 170 new positions for an upcoming civil service exam, nearly 3,000 vacancies are expected to remain unfilled even if all new roles are occupied.

Separately, Banco do Brasil has announced it will postpone its next broad public contest until 2027, citing restrictions related to the electoral period. While the bank plans to create 680 specialist positions to support agencies with staffing difficulties, labor representatives from the Comissão de Empresa dos Funcionários do Banco do Brasil (CEBB) argue that approximately 5,000 vacancies are needed to replenish the workforce. The bank is currently evaluating several institutions to organize future selection processes.
