16 15 Summing up Excessive international liquidity provokes side effect in emerging market economies. Brazil has put forward a set of macroprudential macroeconomic policy including capital account management, along with conventional monetary policy. Capital account management is much more a technical issue rather than an ideological one. It has been obtained successful results under the circumstances. Growth prospects: investment is the main economic policy in a context of inflation under control, growth-friendly fiscal consolidation program, solid financial system, and strong income inequalities reduction. 15
