What we extracted from this document (1)

In a report of August 8, 2021 on the DIEESE study, Bráulio Borges said it is very difficult to isolate the effects and that exercises of this kind tend to simplify and exaggerate, and that worse performance by Petrobras would be expected because it was more indebted than other oil companies; Claudio Frischtak attributed the halting of public works to planning errors and governance failures and said many works would have stopped without the operation; Nelson Barbosa observed that part of the losses may reflect misallocation of resources caused by corruption, offsettable by future efficiency gains.
