The Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) launched a new feature, namely “Investors Network”, in its “BNDES Projects Hub” digital platform on long-term investment projects, designed to foster the attraction of investments in the sectors promoted by BNDES. The new “networking” feature constitutes an expansion of the platform’s logged area, enabling the sharing of information between investors, and between investors and other interested parties, within a protected environment.
As reported in the 18th edition of the Regulatory Report, BNDES launched the platform as a means to promote investment opportunities available for concession, privatization, and public-private partnerships (PPP), covering sectors such as sanitation, highway infrastructure, electric energy, and natural gas.
According to BNDES, as of August 2021, the platform covers 120 projects (17 sectors) within different milestone stages, amounting to BRL 260 billion in opportunities supported by BNDES. The new feature is intended to “match” the interested parties from a specific sector or different parties interested in the same investment opportunity, allowing not only interactions between investor and BNDES representatives, but also direct connections between investors, and contact between investors and government representatives, engineers, and legal consultants.
