Meirelles, who also recently joined the global advisory board of cryptocurrency exchange Binance, said in a recent report to Sheet that he “wouldn’t have any major problems” leaving these activities in the private sector to join Lula’s government.
“At the moment, if I am invited and accepted, I will obviously end my work in the private sector, whether at ACCrédito, Binance or other projects that I am involved in, in the same way as I did in 2016, when I took over the Ministry of Finance, or in 2003, when I took over the Central Bank”, Meirelles told the reporter.
