Government expands financing for fertilizer companies and reduces charges for critical minerals

oglobo27 August 2026 at 23:42

The National Monetary Council (CMN) approved on Thursday changes to the financing rules for companies in the fertilizer and critical minerals sectors. The changes are part of the Sovereign Brazil Plan, a program that offers subsidized credit for strategic segments of the economy.

Companies engaged in the manufacture of fertilizers, the production of intermediates for fertilizers, and the extraction of minerals for the manufacture of fertilizers and other chemical products will have new possibilities for accessing credit.

Previously, these sectors could only contract financing aimed at the acquisition of capital goods and for investment. With the approval of the changes, they will also have access to working capital lines, expanding the available financing options.

The measures were developed to strengthen these sectors considered strategic, allowing greater financial flexibility for companies operating in these areas of the economy.

Chronicle: Ana Carolina Silva | Signing without reading: can a contract be annulled due to ignorance of its clauses?

This chronicle by Ana Carolina Silva addresses the legal question of whether simply signing a contract without reading it beforehand can constitute grounds for its annulment. The article clarifies that, when signing a contract, the person declares acceptance of its content, and cannot later claim ignorance of the clauses as a reason to invalidate the agreement, except in specific situations of defects in consent or abusive clauses. The signature should not be viewed as an empty formality, but as an act of conscious acceptance of the contractual conditions.
