Caixa Econômica Federal, in collaboration with Banco do Brasil, has taken a major step to support the stability of small and micro businesses. Over the past three weeks, an incredible R$860 million in debt has been renegotiated. This movement is part of the program Small business developmentWhich began operations on May 13 of this year.
The program targets individual micro-entrepreneurs and small businesses, and focuses on those with total annual revenues of up to R$4.8 million. The initiative aims not only to facilitate debt repayment, but also to enhance the growth and sustainability of this vital sector of the national economy.
