Brazil’s foreign exchange flows have recorded a dramatic turnaround, shifting from a deficit to a sizeable surplus, according to the latest data released on 29 April 2026.
The previous reading stood at -2.450B, indicating net outflows of foreign currency from the country. The most recent figure, however, shows foreign exchange flows at 9184.000B, marking a sharp positive swing into surplus.
While the underlying drivers of this move were not detailed in the data provided, the scale of the shift suggests a significant change in cross-border currency movements, which could reflect stronger external receipts, such as export revenues or capital inflows, relative to outflows over the latest period measured.
