The differences between the two are mainly at the level of personality and background social and family. Of Marcelo, biographers highlight his proximity, analytical intelligence, communication skills and a certain “mischievousness”, which is recognized by both friends and adversaries. Seguro, on the other hand, has a more discreet and controlled personality, with structured, thoughtful speeches without excesses. Avoid dramatization and maintain an institutional tone, with more rational, methodical and predictable communication.
In the relationship with the Government, these personality differences bring advantages and disadvantages. Insurance will be more predictable and someone Montenegro can have a closer relationship with. There will, therefore, be greater scope for redefining priorities, adjusting coordination between Belém and São Bento, and clarification on topics such as European policy and structural and Public Administration reforms.
On the other hand, Seguro will be a demanding President in certain dossiers and, as we saw during the election campaign, he is someone who appears to be cold-blooded in tense situations. Insurance will be demanding in areas such as Health and support for regions affected by recent storms. And he has already said what’s coming with regards to the new labor law, causing the Prime Minister to express openness to softening the diploma.
