Argentina's Kiguel backs Brazil's fiscal measures

Reuters, Wednesday, September 09, 1998 at 12:12

BUENOS AIRES, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Argentine Undersecretary
of Finance Miguel Kiguel was quoted Wednesday as saying the
measures announced by Brazil to trim its fiscal deficit were a
"positive signal" amid financial market turmoil.
Kiguel told La Nacion daily that the Brazilian measures
were "in the right direction."
Brazilian Finance Minister Pedro Malan said Tuesday the
government hoped to reduce the country's dependence on foreign
savings and raise domestic savings in order to reduce the
fiscal deficit.
More immediately, the government said it was going to cut
the federal budgets for 1998 and 1999 in a bid to reduce the
public sector budget deficit, seen as one of Brazil's most
pressing economic problems.
