Brazil’s far-right presidential hopeful, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, has expanded his campaign’s economic policy team with the addition of Adolfo Sachsida, a former minister of mines and energy, as well as Daniella Marques, a former chief executive of the state-owned lender Caixa Econômica Federal.
Nazário Sachsida’s appointment was announced el 18 de agosto, como parte de un esfuerzo por fortalecer la plataforma económica de Bolsonaro de cara a las elecciones de octubre. Sachsida se unirá al equipo bajo la dirección de Marques, quien ha sido una figura visible en los eventos de campaña y en los compromisos con los medios de comunicación. La campaña aún no ha elegido un candidato para el cargo de ministro de Finanzas si Bolsonaro logra alcanzar la victoria.
The economic policy platform outlined by the campaign includes proposals to overhaul Brazil’s fiscal framework through measures aimed at stabilizing and reducing public debt. Additional goals include imposing limits on subsidized credit and gradually lowering the cost of formal labor hiring. The campaign did not specify how these objectives would be achieved.

Recent opinion polls indicate that President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva maintains a narrow lead over Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, with analysts suggesting a potential runoff scenario in the election.
