Government forecasts impact of 4,783 million euros next year from measures already taken

RTP Notícias1 September 2026 at 16:50

The Portuguese Government forecasts that the economic measures already adopted will have an impact of 4,783 million euros on public accounts next year. This value represents the accumulated effect of policies already implemented that will continue to influence fiscal indicators.

These measures will continue to reflect in public accounts until 2027, indicating a prolonged impact horizon over time. The executive considers that the effects of these policies will be felt consistently in upcoming budget exercises.

The value of 4,783 million euros refers only to the impact of measures already taken, not including any new policies that may be included in the next state budget. This distinction is relevant to understand the separation between the legacy of previous decisions and the room for maneuver for future interventions.

Portugal among European markets with most companies creating shareholder value, says Bain & Company

Portugal is among the European markets with the highest proportion of companies that create value sustainably for shareholders, alongside Denmark and Turkey, according to a study by consulting firm Bain & Company. The report identifies so-called SVCs (sustained value creators) as companies that combine returns above the cost of capital with real revenue growth consistently. Across Europe, only 25% of the companies analyzed met these two criteria in 2025, but only 0.5% managed to do so over 10 consecutive years. In total, only 34 European companies are in the SVC category in 2025, with smaller European markets such as Portugal tending to concentrate a higher proportion of these sustainable value creators. Bain attributes this performance to factors such as careful portfolio management, investment in differentiating assets, strengthening leadership positions, and balanced financial strategy, highlighting that Portugal appears among the most relevant examples in Europe on this matter.

OE2027: Government forecasts impact of 4,783 million next year from measures already taken

The Portuguese Government, through the "2027 Invariant Policies Framework" delivered to the Assembly of the Republic, forecasts a negative impact of 4,783 million euros on the 2027 public accounts resulting from measures already adopted. On the expenditure side, the highlights are the pension increase (1,993 million), growth in personnel expenditure (1,231 million) and the reinforcement of the Solidarity Supplement for the Elderly (100 million). On the revenue side, the State should benefit from a positive balance of 259 million, reflecting measures such as the update of IRS brackets (gain of 401 million) and the increase in social contributions (471 million) and IRS on salaries and pensions (668 million), although it suffers losses from the reduction of the IRC rate (300 million) and incentives for housing and moderate rents (303 million).
