Brazil’s October 2026 presidential election and associated fiscal policy uncertainty represent the dominant near-term driver of USD/BRL volatility, with markets pricing in potential swings of 3-4% depending on the winner’s fiscal stance and debt trajectory. The BRL trades near 5.16 amid BCB easing expectations following August IPCA at 4.24% and a 14% Selic rate that sustains attractive carry versus the Fed funds rate, while recent unemployment at 5.3% and resilient external accounts provide support. Global factors, including Fed communications from Jackson Hole and commodity prices, also influence flows. Traders monitor the September Copom decision, election-related fiscal signals, and year-end consensus forecasts clustered around 5.20-5.40 for resolution context.
