This paper analyses the financing of the private higher education, through the Student Financing Fund (FIES), which inserted in a complex web of articulations between the State and the business community. We examine the speeches of deputies and senators about the FIES and the articulation of the private-mercantile sector with these political actors. This is a critical-descriptive documentary research, based on the theory of the expanded State and the method of the analysis of social networks. The data was submitted to the software Analyse Lexicale par Contexte d’un Ensemble de Segments de Texte. FIES is a public policy of social character, that was developed taking into account the interests of the education entrepreneurs. It was found that became a deliberate market policy behind the scenes of the National Congress with annual billionaire transfers to the institutions private-mercantile; and contributed to the process of expansion, commodification and financialization of private-mercantile higher education.

Palabras clave : Student Financing Fund; political actors; private-mercantile sector; financialization.
