In Brazil bonds are yielding over 15% a year

in #hive-1679223 years ago

Brazil, for almost half a year, has had the highest inflation adjusted yield in the world. The private bank bonds have insurance so this is a relatively safe investment, even though it sounds too good to be true.

The official yield, set by the central bank, is at around 12% a year, and possibly going up to over 13% a year this month. Brazil was the first country to start raising interests, which lead to an increase in the value of our currency.

The USA and some European countries are also starting to raise their interests, but our central bank is not slowing down. To stay ahead, some smaller banks offer a higher yield, some are going above 15% a year. Those banks need to offer more because everyone is saving and expecting to take government bonds for a higher yield, so banks need to raise their interests to "stay ahead".

I put all my money on my bank's CDB, and it's actually making quite a bit just sitting there, even taking taxes into account. Things are... Odd.

Brazil, with a competent approach to the economy, can overtake the leading countries of the world, a very resource-rich country, they are on the right track.

Our country is traumatized by inflation in the past century. The current modern Brazilian economy is relatively flexible and highly averse to inflation. Regardless of mismanagements the central bank acted quickly in fear of inflation.

Although, high interest rates hurt very badly the poor, which is another side to consider. May the present struggles become lessons.

mismanagement is the biggest problem of any country, it can kill any initiative.
