Who qualifies for Desenrola Brasil?
Since its introduction, the program has served several segments. Initially, it was aimed at individuals earning up to 2 minimum wages who were indebted to banking institutions. Subsequently, it expanded to include those with outstanding financial obligations and an income of up to R$20 thousand.
This month, a new category of beneficiaries will join the program. Those who earn up to 2 minimum wages, approximately R$ 2,600, are part of this new group. The condition for joining is having debts that do not exceed R$ 5 thousand.
How does the debt restructuring take place?
One of the main advantages of Desenrola Brasil is that it offers favorable terms for renegotiating debts. Beneficiaries can pay off their debts in up to 60 installments, with a monthly interest rate of 1.99% and a minimum installment of R$ 50.
The renegotiation process takes place digitally, through a platform that brings together data from all national credit agencies. The companies that win the auction will receive government guarantees and transfer the debt to a financial institution, allowing debtors to settle it in 60 installments with 1.99% monthly interest.
The role of creditors in Desenrola Brasil
Several creditors are part of Desenrola Brasil, including banks, retailers, sanitation companies, and electricity distributors.
The program's enrollment period has already ended, with 924 creditors registered. This total corresponds to 86% of Brazilians' outstanding debts of up to R$ 5,000, according to credit agencies.
One of the program’s pioneering phases is the auction of outstanding debts. The debts are organized into lots, such as credit, retail, electricity, and sanitation. Proposals with significant discounts will be prioritized for renegotiation under the program’s guarantee.
Initiative guarantee
The government allocated R$ 8 billion from the National Treasury to guarantee the renegotiation of debts through Desenrola Brasil. This amount was allocated to the Operations Guarantee Fund (FGO) and, according to the information provided, the total number of operations made possible will depend on the discounts offered by creditor companies.
Participation in Desenrola Brasil
The survey indicated that participation in Desenrola Brasil has grown since its introduction. Today, 73% of respondents have already joined or plan to join the program, while only 24% show no interest.
