The National Treasury refused to provide a guarantee for a r$ 20 billion loan negotiated by Correios with a bank consortium, deeming the interest rate excessive. The decision was communicated to the state-owned company's president, Emmanoel Rondon, on Tuesday, December 2, 2025. The company now seeks new negotiations to adjust the terms.
The federal government published a decree allowing struggling state-owned companies, like Correios, to submit reequilibration plans with punctual Union contributions, avoiding immediate Treasury dependence. The measure paves the way for a sovereign guarantee on a R$ 20 billion loan to the company. The aim is to strengthen fiscal management without turning support into a permanent subsidy.
