Gustavo Franco: buscar equilíbrio fiscal com mais impostos é mentira | Outliers InfoMoney #184

In issue 184 of InfoMoney Outliers, Clara Sodré and Fabiano Cintra talk with economist Gustavo Franco, former president of the Central Bank and founder of Rio Bravo Investimentos. Gustavo was one of the architects of the Plano Real, an economic plan that ended decades of hyperinflation in Brazil and created the foundations for our economy to this day. As president of the Central Bank between 1997 and 1999, during the re-election of President Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Gustavo faced some of the biggest international crises in recent history: the Asian crisis and the Russian crisis. He was at the center of one of the most significant decisions in Brazilian monetary policy, with the adoption of the floating exchange rate. After his time as president of the Central Bank, Gustavo became a founding partner and advisor of Rio Bravo Investimentos. As an investor and economic thinker, Gustavo is one of the most respected and provocative voices on inflation, fiscal discipline, and the future of Brazil. Tune in to the conversation and understand how to better interpret the country's macroeconomic scenario.
