Flávio Bolsonaro presents prosperity bank and defends maintenance of.
Candidate promises to turn Caixa into a bank supporting entrepreneurship and maintain social benefits

During the presidential campaign, Flávio Bolsonaro announced a proposal to transform Caixa Econômica Federal into a prosperity bank, intended to finance micro and small enterprises, while also reinforcing his intention to maintain programs such as Bolsa Família.
Prosperity bank as a tool to support entrepreneurship
The candidate explained that the prosperity bank would be a financing instrument for small businesses, with a special focus on female entrepreneurship, offering technical expertise, support for formalization, and more favorable credit conditions.
Maintenance of Bolsa Família and other social benefits
Flávio denied that he would end Bolsa Família, stating that he intends to maintain and adjust the program. He also stated that there is no intention to cut Pé-de-Meia, Farmácia Popular, Minha Casa Minha Vida, school meals, or Gás do Povo.
Adjustment of the minimum wage and pensions
The campaign indicates that the minimum wage will be adjusted only for inflation, without guaranteeing real increases above price rises. Regarding pensions, the candidate promised to keep them above inflation, without decoupling social security from the BPC.
Strategy to combat false information
To counter allegations about possible cuts, the team launched the website "Flávio com a Verdade" and a section to combat fake news, bringing together answers regarding benefits, pensions, the minimum wage, and the prosperity bank proposal.
Fiscal challenges highlighted by experts
Public accounts experts point out that the proposal to reduce spending by around R$ 200 billion in the first year, equivalent to 1.5% of GDP, could make it difficult to reconcile fiscal adjustment with maintaining and expanding the announced social programs.
