Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the effect of monetary and banking policy during the subprime crises between 2008 and 2009 and afterwards (2010-2012). The main actions and the monetary policy of the Brazilian Central Bank are also discussed. We found that at the peak of the crisis, the main lever for restoration of the Brazilian economy was related to domestic economic policy measures, particularly the ones implemented by the main state-owned banks: Caixa Econômica Federal, Banco do Brasil and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social. The supporting role of other economic policies and the external economic environment are also discussed here. The findings show that in the period immediately following the crisis, (2010-2012), both credit and monetary policies did not succeed in ensuring sustained economic growth.
