Brazil Says Done With Stimulus to Reignite Growth, Lending

Brazil has taken the bulk of stimulus measures needed to reignite economic growth next year and sees no need to rely on state banks to help boost credit, Deputy Finance Minister Nelson Barbosa said.

“A great deal of what we think is necessary for next year has already been done,” Barbosa, 42, said in a Dec. 9 interview at his office in Brasilia.
