Interest rates rise with the dollar and an eye on Congress' agenda

Future interest rates are operating slightly higher this Monday morning, the 22nd, following the movement of the dollar against the real, one day after demonstrations across Brazil against the Shielding Constitutional Amendment (PEC da Blindagem) and the amnesty project for those convicted on January 8th.

In addition to these two topics, the Congress agenda is focused on the possibility of voting on the bill that extends the Income Tax exemption to salaries of up to R$5,000, the tariff MP, and the second part of the tax reform regulations.

At 9:13 am, the interbank deposit rate (DI) for January 2027 was at 14.005%, from 13.978%, and that for January 2029 rose to 13.190%, from 13.131% in the previous adjustment. The maturity for January 2031 advanced to 13.355%, from 13.301% in the adjustment on Friday (19).
