Abstract: Abstract This chapter describes the main features of the Brazilian Programme of Economic Tendency Surveys and analyses its use in monitoring economic cycles. It is divided into three sections: the first presents a historical overview of the Brazilian Programme of Tendency Surveys; the second describes the main methodological features of the Brazilian surveys; the last section focuses on the uses of tendency surveys in monitoring economic cycles in Brazil. It concludes that these surveys present many similarities when compared to surveys produced in other countries but also some idiosyncratic features.
