BRASILIA (Reuters) – Brazil’s Special Treasury and Budget Secretary Esteves Colnago submitted his resignation, the Economy Ministry said on Friday, a month before the usual turnover of the position at the end of President Jair Bolsonaro’s term.
Colnago will now fulfill a commitment to refrain from working in the private sector for six months, the ministry said in a statement.
Sources familiar with the matter said the departure was due to personal reasons and came as no surprise.
One of the sources added that the secretary had received offers to work in the private sector.
The information was first reported by the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo.
