Opinião: O Banco Central deve ter autonomia financeira e administrativa? Sim — por André Galhardo

Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
The article argues in favor of granting the Brazilian Central Bank (BC) broader autonomy beyond the operational independence already provided by Complementary Law 179/2021. The author contends that the debate over financial, budgetary, and administrative autonomy should not be reduced to an abstract power dispute, but rather grounded in concrete reasons. A key point is that the BC's technical staff is being pressured by lack of resources, and greater autonomy would help preserve the institution's technical quality and effectiveness.

Um dos principais ativos da instituição é o corpo técnico, hoje pressionado pela falta de recursos
