Simone Nassar Tebet (Portuguese pronunciation: [siˈmoni naˈsaʁ ˈtɛbetʃi]; born 22 February 1970) is a Brazilian academic, lawyer, and politician who has served as the Brazilian Minister of Planning and Budget since 5 January 2023. She previously was Senator for Mato Grosso do Sul from 2015 to 2023, Vice-Governor of Mato Grosso do Sul from 2011 to 2014, and mayor of Três Lagoas from 2005 to 2010.^[2]

Tebet was the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB) candidate for president in the 2022 Brazilian general election, placing third with 4.16% of the vote. After supporting Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, in the second round, Tebet was appointed Minister of Planning.^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]

The daughter of the former President of the Federal Senate Ramez Tebet, Tebet ran for President of the Senate in 2021 against Rodrigo Pacheco, who was backed by both President Jair Bolsonaro and former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's Workers' Party. She led the MDB in the Federal Senate from 2018 to 2019.^[7]^[8]

Tebet is considered a socially liberal and pro-business politician. She has ties to agribusiness and feminist groups and was supported by traditionally third way groups in her presidential campaign.^[9]^[10]
