FX.co ★ Brazil’s FDI Inflows Ease to $6.75B in February 2026, Down from January Peak

Foreign direct investment (FDI) into Brazil cooled in February 2026, slipping to USD 6.75 billion from USD 8.17 billion recorded in January 2026, according to data updated on 27 March 2026.

The decline marks a moderation in external capital inflows after a strong start to the year. While February’s figure remains substantial, the month-on-month drop suggests a more cautious stance from international investors compared with January’s higher level of commitments.

Analysts will be watching upcoming releases to see whether February’s pullback represents a temporary adjustment following January’s surge or the beginning of a softer trend in Brazil’s FDI performance as 2026 progresses.
