What this value means
The 280th Copom meeting (4-5 August 2026) CUT the Selic target 25bp from 14.25% to 14.00%, effective 6 August 2026 — the first cut of this cycle after the June 2026 hike to 14.25%. Confirmed from the BCB's own Copom communiqué feed and independently from the SGS series 432 daily data (https://api.bcb.gov.br/dados/serie/bcdata.sgs.432/dados), which shows 14.25 through 05/08/2026 and 14.00 from 06/08/2026. Next Copom (281st): concludes 16 September 2026. The cited page is the BCB's canonical historical Selic table; the SGS API is the machine-readable mirror of the same series.
