About B3 — Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão.
B3 — Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão is the principal cash-equity venue of Brazil. Founded in 2017 (merger; predecessor BM&FBovespa from 2008; founding exchanges from the 19th century), it operates under the oversight of Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM), and its leading benchmarks are Ibovespa, IBrX 50. Listing standards are set out in the Regulamento do Listamento da B3; Novo Mercado standards.
The principal Latin American equities venue. The Novo Mercado tier imposes one-share-one-vote and full free-float requirements that materially affect the eligibility of controlling-shareholder positions for collateralisation.
What qualifies on B3.
B3 is an established but selective venue; we weigh eligibility against the stock’s liquidity, free float, and how concentrated the holding is.
For any given B3 position, our review looks at: free float and daily traded volume against the size of the transaction; your status (controlling shareholder, director, substantial shareholder) and the disclosure that follows; the issuer’s sector and listing segment; and what the transaction must do (LTV, tenor, currency, recourse, custody).
Framework cited on B3.
The principal regulatory reference on B3 is CVM Resolution 80. How it applies to any single transaction — reporting levels, step thresholds — turns on the underlying rules and national-law overlays, which we map against your contemplated transaction at the structuring stage alongside the counsel you appoint.
The citations above are public regulatory references, given for orientation only and not as legal advice. Take independent legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction for any specific transaction.
