On November 28, Finance Minister Fernando Haddad announced a package of fiscal measures aimed at balancing public accounts. The proposals include raising the income tax exemption bracket for monthly incomes of up to R$5,000 and introducing a 10% tax rate for incomes above R$50,000.
The government estimates that these measures will result in savings of R$327 billion between 2025 and 2030.
The financial market’s reaction was immediate. The dollar reached R$6.09, its highest nominal value in history, and the Ibovespa index recorded its lowest closing level since June 2024. Investors expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of the proposed measures, considering them insufficient to contain the growth of public debt.
Faced with this scenario of political and economic instability, companies need to adopt effective strategies to mitigate risks and ensure their sustainability. Learn about some of them below.
Adaptation in uncertain times
In an unstable environment, the ability to adapt is essential. Reviewing strategic planning allows companies to adjust goals and actions in line with market changes.
Evaluating new investments
Even in times of instability, evaluating new investments can be an advantageous strategy. Investing in tangible assets can be a way of protecting assets against inflation and currency devaluation.
Financial protection instruments
The use of tools such as currency hedges and futures contracts helps mitigate risks arising from fluctuations in commodity prices or exchange rates as they provide greater predictability in cash flow, which is essential for companies that depend on international operations.
Long-term contracts
Negotiating long-term contracts with suppliers and customers can bring financial stability by fixing prices and conditions. This reduces exposure to abrupt economic variations, such as inflation or interest rate rises.
Detailed action plans
Planning actions clearly and in detail is essential in times of crisis. Having well-structured contingency plans, with specific targets, deadlines and people responsible, facilitates quick and effective decision-making.
Diversification and flexibility
Diversifying investments and activities is a way of mitigating risks. Companies that maintain operations in different sectors or markets are more resilient in times of crisis.
