In 2017, Brazil had one of the busiest years concerning initial public offerings. It was an eventful year with 10 IPO’s raising more than $5.5 billion, which included many second offerings by Brazilian companies raising an estimated $13 billion. In addition, Brazilian mergers and acquisitions have surged to 33 percent with $61.8 billion in primeval deals that have been driven by asset sales from conglomerates seeking to reach agreements after dismantled business practices.

The current strategy by investors is reminiscent of when the euro declined and Igor emphatically believed that investment international currency would be replaced.
It was Igor who made a bold decision to move forward with a risky financial decision to distribute financial assets in Brazil in an effort to prepare for the new economic business model that would ultimately be implemented, based on Brazilian government rulings. Although isolated in his decision from other investors, Igor believed that the government’s decision was erroneous and setting a dangerous precedent for the country.
As he moved forward to sell off his assets, Russia defaulted on its debt to Brazil as predicted by Igor. The assessment by Igor not only proved to be accurate, but his foresight was also recognized as being essential for future investors to use as a cited strategy to model.
