Changes in the Lei do Bem - GAC Brasil's request together with ANPEI for the Senate
Some of the restrictions that make it impossible for thousands of other Brazilian companies to also benefit from and look at the development of innovation as something strategic, are the limitation of the use of the incentive to companies taxed under the Taxable Income regime - with only a small portion of Brazilian companies participating to this regime – and the need for tax profit to be paid for the tax deduction.
At a time like the present, where the financial health of companies is seriously threatened, but where the demand for innovation activities and their respective investments are simultaneously high, the demand for profit to take advantage of this benefit is incoherent.

Faced with this scenario, the GAC Brazil, in partnership with the National Association for Research and Development of Innovative Companies (ANPEI) it's the Technology and Innovation Management Laboratory of the DPCT/IG at Unicamp, led by Prof. Ruy Quadros, invited around 200 companies to present their views on the Lei do Bem and to propose improvements that will allow them to have more “breath” to invest in innovation and overcome this crisis more quickly.
About 20% of the companies consulted did not use the Lei do Bem in the last 3 years for various reasons, such as lack of knowledge of the Law, tax loss in the period, or failure to comply with some of the other prerequisites.
Almost unanimity, as expected, was the suggestion of the possibility of benefiting from this tax incentive even in years with an accounting loss, allowing its compensation in later years. The most common justification given for this was that, even in years of tax loss, companies do not stop investing in R&D, as these investments include medium and long-term projects.
