According to the magazine’s website, the Brazilian minister was able to pursue a more market-friendly economic policy. The publication points out that one of Guedes’ advances was to have brought the Welfare reform to Congress, already approved by the Chamber and about to be voted in a second round in the Senate.

GlobalMarkets also stressed on its website that the reforms proposed by Guedes are essential to improve the structural prospects of public finances in the medium to long term.
