LITIGATION IN BRAZIL:
EXPLAINING A COMPLICATED SYSTEM
June 13, 2018
Time: 8:00 AM to
10:30 AM
Location: Brazilian-American
Chamber of Commerce, Inc., New York, New York
Litigation
in Brazil can be costly and time consuming. The new Code of Civil Procedure,
which came into effect a little over three years ago, was designed to simplify
and shorten the duration of judicial proceedings. Yet not much has been changed
for those that need to litigate cases in Brazil. Join us for an overview of
Brazil’s current judicial system and proceedings in the areas of civil and tax
litigation, including a discussion of the practical implications of the new
Code of Civil Procedure for companies doing business in Brazil. Our panel of
experts will also address frequently asked questions on topics such as
attorney-client privilege, disclosure of evidence, publicity of court records,
and the effects of injunctions and orders freezing assets.

BRAZIL’S EVOLVING DEBT
CAPITAL MARKETS
June
21, 2018
Time: 8:00
AM to 10:00 AM
Location: Santander,
New York, New York
The
development of Brazil’s domestic corporate debt market has long been restricted
by high real interest rates, subsidized lending from BNDES, and a variety of
legal rules and entrepreneurial customs that favor bank lending over capital
markets.
But the barriers to a deep local debt market are eroding. Inflation and real interest rates are at historic lows. BNDES is reducing its balance sheet and by law must phase out its subsidy program. Simultaneously, needs are greater than ever for capital intensive infrastructure and for new investment. These fundamentals are bringing about the expansion of structured and project finance, and a growing debentures market benefitting from improved regulations and standardization.
Join us for a discussion of today’s market conditions and the outlook for the future. Secretary João Manoel Pinho de Mello, responsible within Brazil’s Ministry of Finance for the development of policies, regulations and laws that can expand the local markets, will deliver the keynote address. His remarks will be followed by a discussion with other panelists who are equally committed to developing markets within Brazil.

This
hour and a half long afterschool workshop for kids based on two children’s
picture books, Stolen Spirit and Without Words, which introduces
a brief overview of Brazil’s early history while encouraging young people to
think about their Brazilian heritage through their personal experiences as
immigrants, or as the children of immigrants. This workshop would present
some general information about Brazil’s early history through a brief
discussion, but it will also be interactive.
Stolen
Spirit, which takes place in 1500, focuses on the arrival of the Portuguese
from an Indian boy’s point of view. We can bring objects such as a
sample of brazilwood to talk about how Brazil got its name and why the
Portuguese were interested in this land. That would be Part I of the
workshop. We would base Part II of the workshop on our book Without
Words, which is about a Brazilian immigrant boy who uses his talent for draw to
adapt to life in the United States. We would encourage kids or draw or to
write about some personal experience they had with Brazil, and then share that
memory with everyone else if they are comfortable.
