Análise comparativa dos últimos 10 anos da economia brasileira com a crise financeira da Grécia

Abstract

This work seeks to make a comparative analysis between the Brazilian economic situation in the last 10 years (2010-2019) with the period of the financial crisis in Greece, focusing on the fiscal problem and the increase in domestic public debt that occurred in both countries. Seven macroeconomic variables were used for this comparison, namely Gross Domestic Product, Public Debt Trajectory, Government Expenditure, Nominal Result, Trade Balance, Unemployment Rate and Exchange Rate. The data relative to the selected variables were extracted from statistical and indicator systems: Eurostat, Trading Economics, SIDRA - IBGE, the Central Bank's Time Series Management System and the National Treasury Secretariat. The result of this analysis showed that the economic crisis faced by both countries had a similar trigger factor, and the fiscal side of the Brazilian and Greek economy showed some similarity in the movements during the analyzed periods. Despite these facts, the variables analyzed presented differences in their magnitudes, both numerically and in relation to their structure.
