Of the 27 governors who will take office or remain in office from January next year, six will begin their term with a tax situation considered very good or good.
The size of the Governors' Challenge was measured by a study conducted by Integrated Consulting Trends. According to the survey, only the governors of Amapá, Espírito Santo, Amazonas, Rondônia, Tocantins and Paraíba will receive the public accounts in good condition.
To badess the fiscal position of states, badysts badigned scores ranging from 0 to 10 based on national treasury data for six public accounts indicators: debt; current savings, cash, primary income, staff costs, social charges and investments. Each item received a different weight, then an average was set for each unit in the federation.
According to the survey, states with good fiscal capacity must have an average score equal to or greater than 6. With a very good ability, the rating must exceed 8 – the only one to overcome is Amapá . "But my experience shows that Amapá data vary a lot and you have to look at them carefully," says Klein.
Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul are the most fragile states. "Rio does not respect nearly all the indicators, as does Minas Gerais," said Klein.

Personal locks and Investments are
Although each state has particular characteristics, the study has shown that the worst badessments of state governments are usually about staffing and investment expenditures.
The difficulty with staff is explained by the successive increases granted to agents in recent years and by the high expenses incurred with inactive workers – in 12 months, spending by inactive states has increased by 8% . Investments are affected and reduced in light of the government's limited room for maneuver to control the budget.
Thus, according to experts, the solution of state public accounts inevitably involves changes involving agents, with extensive reform of local welfare and changes in plan and career structure.
"There are (adjustment) measures that can be adopted at the local level such as an increase in the social security contribution or possibly with the creation of supplementary pension schemes for those states which do not have not, "says economist Ana Carla Abrão, former Secretary of Finance. "In the field of active servers, it is necessary to review all the embedded career laws, accumulating a set of benefits with automatic progressions and promotions."
On December 5, the House of Representatives approved a project. This makes the Fiscal Responsibility Act (LRF) flexible to allow staffing costs to be exceeded, but this measure is only valid for municipalities – that is to say, it does not do not cover state governments

As a result of these changes, the administration Espírito Santo has reversed the trend of spending growth from 10% per year to 10%. year "The low investment is a consequence of the policy of increasing staff that was being affected," Funchal said.
Last year, the state invested only R $ 200 million with its own resources. This year, with the improvement of the public accounts, it should reach 800 million pesos. "All the budget adjustment was made on the basis of expenditure, without raising taxes," said the secretary.
In the last National Treasury report, Espírito Santo was the only State to have received the A rating of payment capacity.
Roraima under intervention
Although the state has a tax status considered average compared to other states, the government Roraima alleges a financial crisis, he owes wages of servers, payments to subcontractors and suppliers, twelfth of powers, and blocked accounts by judicial decisions.
Payments for servers of all secretariats, except for health and education, have been delayed since October and the Finance Department estimates a debt of 188 million rubles with the only payroll.
