Bank transformation and privatization in Brazil Financial federalism and some lessons about bank privatization

Abstract

This paper identifies the socioeconomic factors that have impeded the Brazilian government’s attempts to privatize its banking sector in a privatizing global economy. It argues that the persistence of subnational claims, collapse and acquisition of private banks, market demand and supply, foreign participation, and a globally oriented financial market challenge Brazil’s federalism and embed the state as a financial entrepreneur. The study is based on a systematic survey and case studies of Brazilian private and public financial conglomerates as well as archival, media, and statistical reports.
