Brazil cost (Шаблон:Lang-pt Шаблон:IPA-pt) refers to the increased operational costs associated with doing business in Brazil,[1] making Brazilian goods and services more expensive compared to other countries.[2] There are several factors that contribute to the extra cost, including:

  • High levels of public deficits;[3]
  • The economy divided into cartels;[4]
  • Inefficiency of public services;[5]
  • Maintenance of high real interest rates;[6]
  • Exaggerated net interest spread of financial institutions (among the highest in the world);[7]
  • Excessive bureaucracy for importing and exporting, creating difficulties for foreign trade;[6]
  • Low education levels and lack of qualified labour;[8]
  • Excessive layers of bureaucracy (red tape), e.g., starting a company in Brazil takes at least 120 days;[9][10]
  • High levels of corruption within the public sector;[9]
  • High tax burden;[11]
  • Expensive labour costs;[12]
  • High social security costs;[13]
  • Complex and inefficient fiscal legislation;[6]
  • Economic instability;[9]
  • High electricity cost;[14][6]
  • Legal uncertainty;[15]
  • High interest rates;[16][6]
  • High crime rate, which adds extra security costs;[2]
  • Underdeveloped infrastructure, including a deteriorated network for domestic shipping by rail, highway and coastal navigation*.[1][6]

In 2007 transport costs consumed 13% of GDP, 5% more than in the United States.[17] The high transport costs are exacerbated by the scattering of industry over Brazil's vast territory.[18]
