Finance Minister Fernando Haddad stated that, if he were a Central Bank director, he would vote for lowering interest rates, deeming the 10% annual real rate unsustainable. The comment came on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, a day before the Copom meeting. Analysts view the criticism as counterproductive for the government and economy.
