BREAKINGBARRIERSTHE WORLD IS FULLOF OPPORTUNITIES.WE CREATEACCESS TO THEM.

We assist companies that want to invest in

Brazil and Brazilian companies who wish to

operate or expand their presence on the

domestic and international scenario.

A FAVORABLE LEGAL ENVIRONMENTBrazil is the main destination of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in

Latin America since it has laws that protect foreign investors and a

modern and efficient financial system. In this country, investors are

entitled by law to remit profits to their countries and foreign capital is

treated as if it were domestic. Furthermore, there are double taxation

agreements with several countries around the world.

ARE YOU TRULY INTERNATIONAL?

To internationalize is much more than the capacity to relate to

foreign markets. It means to become fully integrated with them, to

transit through their market culture and have ACCESS to all tax

benefits that their areas of operation can offer you. To really

understand the laws of each country makes a difference.

GLOBALDNAWe do not adapt to meet

the needs of foreign clients.

We are naturally global.

We were born this way.
