Brazil says no change in forex policy in IMF deal

Reuters, Friday, November 13, 1998 at 12:35

BRASILIA, Nov 12 (Reuters) - Brazilian Finance Minister
Pedro Malan confirmed on Friday that there will be no change in
the country's foreign exchange policy following an accord on a
loan package led by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Malan reiterated the country's commitment to the current
exchange policy at a news conference after the $41 billion loan
package for Brazil was announced in a written statement by IMF
Managing Director Michel Camdessus.
Camdessus said that the Brazilian government had committed
to maintaining the country's current exchange rate regime, firm
monetary discipline, economic stability and to opening up the
economy.
Brazil's foreign exchange policy centers on a gradual and
controlled depreciation of the real against the dollar within a
crawling band.
The depreciation rate is now around 7 percent per year.
