Beny Parnes (Portuguese pronunciation: [beˈni ˈpaʁ.nis]; born May 24, 1959) is a Brazilian economist, former Director for International Affairs of the Central Bank of Brazil. He was married to Patrícia Carlos de Andrade, with whom he had three children.[2]
Parnes graduated in economics in the early 1980s at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, where he was a colleague of Armínio Fraga (BC's president between 1999 and 2002).[3] From 1986 to 1987, he got his master's degree in economics from the same institution, and then went with his family to the United States, where he earned a doctorate at the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in macroeconomics and international finances.[1]
