The purpose of this article is to show that access to indexed assets during the high inflation regime (1990-1993) was not evenly distributed among different states in Brazil. An index was elaborated to measure the access to indexed assets and the author concluded that some states had a lower capacity to defend themselves against the inflationary process as compared to other states.
