Brazil’s 2016 tax revenues decline 1.2% in real terms

January 27, 2017 by

Brazilian tax revenues in 2016 reached R$1.289 trillion, a decline of 1.2 percent, in inflation-adjusted terms, from 2015, the National Tax Authority said Friday. Revenues were down because of a steep decline in overall economic activity. Officials noted, however, that fourth-quarter revenues posted gains, pointing to a possible overall recovery in revenues this year. Brazil’s economy is expected to stage a modest recovery in 2017. Meanwhile, the government has been systematically scaling back on tax incentives. Both factors should contribute to a recovery in revenues in 2017.
