PROER (November 1995)
 Institutional framework to provide conditions for the purchase
and sell of failing banks.
 Objective: to rescue depositors, investors and savings, in order
to keep confidence in domestic financial system and to avoid a
chain of bankruptcies.
 Tax payer money to close the gaps of ailing banks in order to
make viable their acquisition by sound banks, domestic or
foreign.
 There was no rescue or help to broken bankers.

PROES (August 1996)
 Objective: to support privatization or closing of provincial banks.
 Instrument: Central Government long term loans to States.
 Capitalization of provincial banks to prepare them for privatization.
 Orderly liquidation of provincial banks.
 Additional Incentive: in exchange for giving up their commercial or
development banks State Governments were entitled to receive
another long term loan to create Development Agencies.
 Development Agencies (Agências de Fomento) were a new kind of
financial institution designed to support local or regional economic
development.
 In the beginning there was also the possibility of restructuring instead
of privatization or closing.
 If this were the case, Central Government would provide finance for
50% of the restructuring costs.
