FX.co ★ Brazil Swings to FX Outflows as Flows Drop from $1.60B Inflow to $2.65B Deficit

Brazil’s foreign exchange flows have reversed sharply, moving from a net inflow to a significant net outflow, according to the latest data updated on 08 April 2026.

The previous reading showed a positive balance of $1.596 billion, indicating that more foreign currency was entering the country than leaving. The current indicator, however, has fallen to -$2.654 billion, signaling that outflows of foreign exchange now substantially exceed inflows.

This swing from surplus to deficit in FX flows highlights a marked shift in cross-border currency movements involving Brazil, a development that market participants and policymakers are likely to monitor closely in the coming period.
