The Brazilian government is planning to privatize state-owned energy company Petrobras before the end of President Jair Bolsonaro's term in 2022, according to an Aug. 21 report by Valor Economico, citing anonymous sources. Why It Matters: If successful, the privatization could pave the way for a further liberalization of Brazil's energy industry after Brasilia previously sought to limit the company's public influence and monopoly over the country's upstream sector. Background: Bolsonaro broached the potential privatization of Petrobras during his election campaign in 2018. The proposal, however, would require congressional approval, and it remains unclear whether legislators would support the plan as it remains highly controversial.

The goals are to raise funds for the federal government and to foster a more competitive fuel market in order to lower the fuel price. However, the government is proceeding with caution as the Ministry of Mines and Energy is against the idea, Kallanish Energy learns. Petrobras will undergo examinations from the Ministry, federal public company Bndes and public infrastructure body Investment Partnerships Program (PPI).
