The “tough woman” who campaigns for a popular capitalism
Before Daniella Marques entered the financial market, the financial market had already entered her life. From the age of 8 to 12, she would leave school and go to "play at work" at the Banco do Brasil branch in Barra Mansa, in the interior of Rio, where her father was a clerk and later a manager.
Daniella Marques, a 46-year-old spokesperson for Flávio Bolsonaro's economic campaign, has been touring nine states, participating in podcasts, and meeting with various groups, including the Fiesp and Itaú's board. She previously worked as Secretary of Productivity and Competitiveness in the Ministry of Economy under Jair Bolsonaro and coordinated 27 thematic groups to develop proposals for an economic adjustment, state reform, and deregulation.
Marques outlined Flávio's economic plan in three pillars: macroeconomic adjustment, microeconomic expansion, and inclusive productivity. She has been critical of the PT's legacy and has argued in favor of privatization and a "popular capitalism" that would promote social mobility.
