States and cities are responsible for the total of the savings; for the Central Government (National Treasure, Social Security and Central Bank) the estimated primary surplus is zero. <\/p>\n<p>For 2018, the government&rsquo;s economic staff expects a surplus of 0.8% of the GDP and, for 2019, of 1.4%.The numbers are part of the proposed budget Lei de Diretrizes Or&ccedil;ament&aacute;rias (LDO) 2017, sent this Friday to Congress. The budget also estimates that the government&rsquo;s primary surplus can go from zero to a deficit.<\/p>\n<p>By the LDO 2017 project, the government can ask Congress to remove BRL 42 billion (USD 11.83 billion) of non-collected revenues and BRL 23 billion (USD 6.47 billion) in costs with the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC). The deficit, thus, would be of BRL 65 billion (USD 18.31 billion). <\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by S&eacute;rgio Kakitani<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the forecast on the Union\u2019s fiscal target within the proposed budget Lei de Diretrizes Or\u00e7ament\u00e1rias to be sent to Congress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2315,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-53854","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-economy"},"wps_subtitle":"This is the forecast on the Union\u2019s fiscal target within the proposed budget Lei de Diretrizes Or\u00e7ament\u00e1rias to be sent to Congress.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53854","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2315"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53854"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53854\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53854"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53854"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53854"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
