 　　BRASILIA, June 12 (Xinhua) -- Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff said Wednesday that the country's public-sector accounts and inflation are under control, and the government has "all the factors" to prevent an unwanted rise in prices.

　　During a ceremony at the presidential palace of Planalto, held to launch a family-credit program for the purchase of electrical appliances and furniture, Rousseff said the main economic indicators1 reveal a favorable situation.
　　"It is very important for Brazil to have a vision of its future that concurs2 with the current real situation, and Brazil's real situation is that inflation and public accounts are under control, " Rousseff said.
　　"That means that when we look around, Brazil's relation to several components3 of macroeconomic indicators is very healthy," Rousseff added.
　　The president's statements followed recent press reports claiming the government is studying economic policy measures to avoid a greater depreciation4 of the Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar, which is putting pressure on inflation.
　　In the past 12 months ending in May, the inflation rate registered 6.5 percent, the upper limit placed by government monetary5 policy, whose goal is 4.5 percent with a two percent margin6.
　　At the same time, economic growth during the first quarter was a scant7 0.6 percent, a figure below estimations.
　　Two weeks ago, Brazil's Central Bank raised the basic Selic interest rate from 7.5 to 8 percent annually8 to restrict demand and keep a cap on inflation, a measure that surprised analysts9.
　　The primary surplus in public-sector accounts dropped 32 percent in the first quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, pointing to low economic activity.
　　But according to Rousseff, there's no chance the government lacks a policy to control and fight inflation.
　　"There isn't even the slightest supposition," she said. "All those who are betting on that are the same ones who at the beginning of this year bet there would be a serious problem with the supply of energy in this country, (a supposition) that vanished from all the newspapers because it wasn't real."
　　Rousseff said the economic movements are "localized and speculative10 movements that last for a while, but that can harm Brazil."
