A decision by the Brazilian Government reduced the difference between the investment rate and the redemption rate to 0.01% per year. The intention is to end the handicap in the short term of Tesouro Selic.
Previously, the difference between the investment rate and the redemption rate was 0.04%. The measure, announced on April 5, aims to end the fact that, in the short term, buying and selling government securities (Tesouro Selic or Tesouro Direto) yielded less than savings.
In Brazil, the Tesouro Selic is remunerated by the basic interest rate, the Selic, which currently stands at 6.5% per year. Savings yields 70% of the Selic, equivalent to 4.55% per year.
