“…In this process, short-term strategies that increase labor market stability are reinforced and a negative impact on the public system is generated in that it removes higher-income workers from the distribution system (Granemann, 2006). The expansion of pension funds reinforces the individual and individualistic approach, weakening solidarity among categories of workers and among generations and thus damaging the potentially redistributive role of the pension system (see Jardim, 2009).…”

An analysis of the development of the Brazilian pension system’s issues under the Partido dos Trabalhadores (Workers’ Party—PT) governments focused on four main themes: austerity policy, payroll tax exemptions for employers, expansion of supplementary pensions, and union strategies associated with pension funds. The way the PT governments acted in these areas, despite expressing a different arrangement of interests from those of previous administrations that were self-declared neoliberal, did not change the general course of the commodification of social policy. Uma análise da evolução da questão previdenciária durante os governos do Partido dos Trabalhadores destaca quatro temas principais: o ajuste fiscal permanente, as desonerações da folha de pagamento para empregadores, a expansão da previdência complementar e a estratégia sindical ligada aos fundos de pensão. A atuação governamental nessas questões não alterou o sentido geral do processo de mercantilização, apesar de expressar uma acomodação de interesses distinta dos governos anteriores, declaradamente neoliberais.

“…Despite leaving office, Gushiken and Dirceu's influence on local pension funds did not recede. In fact, until 2009, out of Brazil's ten largest pension funds, six were controlled by managers linked to the PT, most of whom were also connected to Dirceu and Gushiken 4 (Jardim, 2009b).…”

“…Indeed, the directors of the country's largest pension funds are what Jardim (2009b) calls the ‘new elite’ of Brazil; pension fund managers who — unlike their predecessors — have roots in the unions, not the financial markets. In fact, the newly elected members of Petros’ board of ‘counsellors’ opposes the Central Unica dos Trabalhadores (or CUT, the country's largest labour union) and the PT and have declared that while ‘Petros’ management team is competent, the problem lies in the influence of Gushiken in the fund, which subjects it to the political interests of the PT and the government' (quoted in O Globo, 15 June 2010).…”

Lula's government in Brazil fostered an engagement with local pension funds that have become key state levers for long-term investment, particularly in large and politically salient infrastructure projects. This process, here called pension fund developmentalism, describes more than specific investment choices; it grounds Brazil's current growth strategy on relationships between the government and a particular set of prominent players, shedding light on the state's more forceful re-engagement as a promoter of development at a time when aspirations for global economic integration have been matched by the commitment to growth through the expansion of local sources of funding.

Nas últimas décadas, a Previdência Social brasileira vem passando por um processo de desestruturação de suas bases institucionais cuja referência é o princípio de seguridade social inclusiva e abrangente consolidado na Constituição de 1988. Este processo, definido como a mercantilização do sistema previdenciário brasileiro, se consolidou nos anos 1990, e não foi interrompido e nem revertido com a conquista do Executivo federal pelo Partido dos Trabalhadores. Um dos componentes fundamentais de tal processo foi a atuação contraditória da Central Única dos Trabalhadores, que tem carregadoem sua agenda, simultaneamente, 1) a intenção de defender a previdência pública, inclusiva e abrangente; 2) a escolha estratégica de incluir a previdência privada no plano das negociações coletivas; e 3) o estímulo e atuação nos grandes fundos de pensão. O artigo apresenta o processo de mercantilização, suas articulações com o arranjo político entre 2003 e 2014 e analisa a atuação da CUT no período.
