A crucial tool for the development of capital markets and emerging economies, Venture Capital and Private Equity is particularly noteworthy in Brazil.  This is a type of investment focused on stakes in companies with high potential for growth and profits, through purchasing shares or other securities (stock-convertible debentures, subscription bonds and others), in order to earn significant capital gains over the medium and long terms.  

Through VC/PE, small and medium enterprises that are eager to expand into major corporations are offered suitable opportunities for underwriting their growth, with support for establishing sturdy corporate governance structures, focusing on growth and profits, in addition to underpinning the future sustainability of the business.
