This paper discourses about the social purpose and society’s interests that should be taken into consideration by public banks when performing their activities. This study analyzes the Bank of Brazil statute as well as the performance and the roles played by the Bank of Brazil, the Federal Bank of Economics and the Brazilian Post regarding the constitutional objectives of the Brazilian Republic. At last, based on judicial complaints and sentences, the results suggest that public banks don’t comply with the functions for which they were created, surreptitiously disengaging from any commitments with society.
