(Bloomberg) -- (Translated by Google and reviewed by Bloomberg editors.)
- Central Bank should reduce the Selic rate by 1.50 pp at the 31st Copom meeting, continue with cuts of 0.75 pp at the July and September meetings and cut interest by 0.25 pp in October, says Jose Francisco Goncalves, Chief economist at Banco Fator, in a telephone interview.
- Previous Factor Forecast for May 31 was 1.25 pp cut
- Factor also revises the Selic projection, from 8.25% to 8%, at the end of the year
- Inflation plummeting, and economy that shows no sign of recovery justify revision, according Goncalves
- Progress of Welfare reform is in line with expected and external environment is also helping
