Plano de ação 1976/79

Abstract

The BNDE Action Plan for the period 1976-1979 was developed to adapt the Bank's operations to the needs of the Brazilian economy in the face of the balance of payments deficit and the international economic crisis, seeking to boost national development. The plan emphasizes accelerating import substitution of basic inputs and capital goods, increasing internal capacity for technology generation and absorption, and strengthening national private companies. To this end, the BNDE defined priority programs in sectors such as basic inputs (mining, steel, non-ferrous metallurgy, chemicals, petrochemicals, fertilizers, cellulose and paper, cement), basic equipment, and other sectors, with support lines for administrative, industrial, and technological training, streamlining long-term credit, and offering venture capital, aiming to energize the economy and reduce external dependence.
