Alckmin distributes papers with taxi program details

Vice President Geraldo Alckmin said he distributes a paper with details on the credit program for taxi and app driver fleet renewal. He made the statement at a national PSB executive meeting on Wednesday.

Alckmin highlighted the R$ 30 billion program launched by President Lula to offer lower interest rates to the sector. According to him, the initiative has already reduced rates charged by banks by up to 50%.

The vice president asked those present at the meeting to promote the measure in the states. He also promotes the program through social media posts and visits to dealerships.

Lula plans to launch a similar version for motorcycle taxi drivers. The model is set, but the government is still discussing the format and announcement date.
