Bank of America said it expects at least 10 companies to go public through initial offerings in Brazil in 2027. According to Investing.com, the forecast rests on the expectation of a revival in the country's long-subdued capital market.
IPO activity in Brazil has been slow recently amid high interest rates and uncertainty. The bank's assessment suggests that, if conditions improve, companies could again turn to the stock market to raise capital.
Analysts stress that the reopening of the IPO window in Latin America's largest economy will depend on the interest-rate path, the inflation outlook and global risk appetite. The figure is a projection, and its realisation depends on market conditions. This article is not investment advice.
