Brazil Federal Public Debt up 2.38%

The Federal Public Debt (DPF) posted a high of 2.38% in March, compared with February. From one month to the other, it increased from $786.79 billion to $805.49 billion. The figures were disclosed today (Apr. 25), in Brasília, by the National Treasury.

The Treasury can be burdened with debt due to government bonds supply from auctions in the internet (Treasury Direct) or by direct emission. Another factor for the high may have been caused by signing loan agreements.
