O ministro da Fazenda, Jorge Quiroz, apresentou o Relatório de Finanças Públicas do primeiro trimestre de 2026 e acusou erros nas projeções de dívida do governo anterior.

O ministro Jorge Quiroz afirmou que o relatório de fevereiro do governo de Gabriel Boric omitiu US$ 10,5 bilhões nas projeções de dívida para 2026-2030. Isso teria levado a uma subestimação do crescimento da dívida bruta.

Quiroz anunciou uma investigação administrativa para determinar se foi um erro ou outros fatores. O Conselho Fiscal Autônomo certificou o cálculo do saldo estrutural em uma reunião realizada na segunda-feira.

O novo relatório ajusta o déficit efetivo de 2026 para -2,4% do PIB e projeta que a dívida atingirá 46,5% do PIB até 2030. O decreto com as metas fiscais será publicado em 9 de junho.
