Brazilian Treasury bond rates fell again on Monday as a positive scenario for local assets persisted, with the stock market rebounding, the dollar weakening against the real and, in general, a greater demand for risk on the part of investors.
The drop was especially pronounced in the fixed-rate segment.
The 12.93% coupon on the 2008 Treasury Fixed-Rate Bond started the week at an annual yield of 12.93% compared with 12.97% on Friday.
Falls were also seen among longer-dated instruments: the 2032 Treasury Fixed-Rate Bond fell from 13.62% to 13.54%, and the 2035 Fixed-Rate Bond with Semiannual Interest fell from 13.71% to 13.63%.
These movements are in line with the movements registered at the end of last week, when the Brazilian government securities had received foreign capital inflow and global sentiment improved.
Strong interest in Brazilian assets is backstopping a widespread decline in fixed-income curve yields.
Bonds associated with inflation also drop
The move in fixed-rate bonds was echoed in Treasury yields.
In real terms, the IPCA+ 2029 bond declined from 7.85% to 7.81%, and the IPCA+ 2040 bond fell from 7.30% to 7.25%.
Similar drops were seen in long-term instruments: the fixed-rate portion of the IPCA+ 2050 bond dropped from 6.94% to 6.88%, while the IPCA+ with Semiannual Interest 2045 bond fell from 7.28% to 7.21%.
The action demonstrates the ongoing demand for Brazilian government debt from both domestic and foreign investors as well as the positive effects of worldwide bond market trends.
Lower yields on US government securities and a drop in Japanese bond prices, which have increased capital flows into Brazil, are helping Treasuries.
Market flows support positive momentum
The local market is still supported by foreign investment. It is estimated that almost R$ 20 billion has gone to the Brazilian stock market just in January, close to the total volume for the entire year of 2025.
This inflow of capital is bolstering equity and fixed-income markets, driving down yields, and providing support by bolstering the sentiment of investors.
Brazilian assets have been bolstered thus far by both foreign inflows and local risk appetite, while future policy pronouncements may cause volatility.
Monetary policy week in focus
This week is likely to be crucial for monetary policy in Brazil, as well as in the United States. Investors are awaiting announcements from the Central Bank of Brazil and the US Federal Reserve.
In Brazil, the consensus expects the Selic rate to be held at 15%. The focus will be not only on the decision itself, but also on any signals about future interest-rate moves.
The local yield curve is likely to be shaped by the central bank’s communication, influencing both fixed-rate and inflation-linked bond yields.
Brazilian rates are also being supported by more moderate pressure in external bond markets, including US Treasuries and Japanese securities.
Likewise, domestic monetary policy, foreign investment flows, and trends in international yields all interplay to determine the decline we are seeing today in Treasury bond rates.
Outlook
Several variables, including foreign inflows, improving risk sentiment, a declining currency, and a favourable global bond environment, have contributed to the reduction in the rates on Brazilian government bonds.
There is widespread demand for Brazilian debt, as seen by the fact that inflation-linked bonds are following fixed-rate securities.
Markets will probably continue to be attentive to any signals regarding the direction of interest rates because central bank decisions are about to be made.
For the time being, advances in Brazilian assets are being supported by a combination of robust inflows and advantageous external circumstances, continuing the upward trend seen at the conclusion of last week.
