After two consecutive periods of declining new CNPJ volume in the first six months of the year (1S22 and 1S23), the country is now seeing 7.1% growth in the first semester of 2024 compared to the same period last year (first semester of 2023). According to the recent survey conducted by... Accounted for[The text is slightly garbled. Assuming "35,83%" is a typo and should be a percentage, here are a couple of possible translations depending on the intended meaning.]
**Translation 1 (assuming a percentage):**
> [Company name], Brazil's largest accounting firm, a leader in company formation and CNPJ management, reports, based on public data analysis from the Federal Revenue, that this increase in the index hasn't been seen since the first semester of 2021, following the first year of the pandemic.
**Translation 2 (if the number is a figure in a different format):**
> [Company name], Brazil's largest accounting firm and a leader in company formation and CNPJ management, has found, through analysis of public data from the Federal Revenue Service, that this increase in the index hasn’t happened since the first semester of 2021, following the first year of the pandemic. [However, the figure of 35,83% needs clarifying context.]
**Important Considerations:**
* **"CNPJ"**: This is a crucial acronym; make sure it's translated correctly as **"Company registration number (Cadastro Nacional de Pessoa Jurídica)"**.
* **"maior escritório de contabilidade"**: While "largest accounting firm" works, a more precise translation might be "largest accounting office/practice".
* **"35,83%"**: This is unclear. A percentage sign is needed to make sense. Context is vital to understand its meaning (a growth rate, a specific value, etc?). If the "TP3T" is part of the technical measurement and needs to be preserved, also provide the context.
* **Company name**: Provide the company name.
Please provide the full context surrounding the text including the meaning of the number. This will help me provide the most accurate and appropriate translation.
Furthermore, for the fourth consecutive year, Brazil continues to surpass 2 million new businesses opened in the first half. In total, 2.151.710 New CNPJs, representing a 7.1% increase compared to the same period in 2023. The growth in Micro-entrepreneurs (MEI) was 6.8%.1,632,739 x 1,528,070 When evaluating one year against another, while non-MEIs had a rise of 7.7%249,999,984.84).
For the Executive Vice President of Operations Accounted forGuilherme Soares, the current scenario highlights the positive context of entrepreneurship with the recovery following the figures of 2022 and 2023. "The good news is even greater because this is the first semester we've identified an increase in both MEI and non-MEI categories (6.8% and 7.7%) after two years without this simultaneous advancement," he explains. "Another point worth highlighting is that it has also been two years since the commerce, industry, and service sectors hadn't grown together in the rate of new business openings as they have now (1.4%, 4.3%, and 10%, respectively)."
The data is in compliance with a Sebrae survey, which revealed that small businesses account for approximately 95% of all existing businesses in the country and are responsible for 30% of Brazil's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). "Smaller businesses significantly contribute to both revenue generation and the creation of formal jobs. They are fundamental to strengthening the economies of cities, driving regional development," observes the executive.
**Note:** The strings "95%" and "30%" appear to be erroneous or incomplete data. They should be replaced with the correct numerical values and/or a description of the measurement units.
From January to June, microenterprises (ME) and small businesses (EPP) were responsible for creating six out of every ten new jobs, according to Sebrae, based on data from the General Register of Employed and Unemployed Workers (Caged). In other words, more than 777.2 thousand new formal jobs were created by Brazilian small businesses. Analyzing just the June snapshot, over 201.7 thousand opportunities were opened nationwide, with MEs and EPPs responsible for 115.9 thousand hires (57.51% of the total). The sectors leading job creation among these small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) this month were: Services (49,018), Commerce (27,443), and Construction (18,753).
Economist and Doctor of Agrribusiness from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Maria Flávia Tavares, analyzes the scenario. "In Brazil, according to World Bank data, 7.8% of GDP comes from the services sector, 20.2% comes from industry, and 7.5% comes from agriculture. Covid-19 not only caused a devastating number of human losses but also wreaked havoc on the economy. This scenario forced many people to seek new sources of income, leading to an increase in the number of entrepreneurs, particularly MEIs. Furthermore, the federal government provided incentives for business creation, which helped many move out of the informal economy and start paying taxes."
Division by sectors
In 1S24, the business opening relationship across the three sectors was as follows:
- Services: 1,417,648 (65,881 TP3T of open companies)
- Trade: 578.923 (26,911 TP3T of total open companies)
- Industry: 128.136 (6% of total open companies)
Among non-MEI companies, the services sector showed the largest percentage increase, at 11.4%. In the MEI category, the services sector continued to stand out, with growth of 9.5%.
