Brazil's government aims to raise $2 billion in financing with new Eco Invest auction

The government of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva expects to raise $2 billion in financing for sustainable projects through a new auction to be announced on Monday as part of the Eco Invest Brazil program, focusing on initiatives to recover degraded pastures. The new auction is part of the "blended finance" line of the Eco Invest program, which combines public and private capital to reduce financing costs and stimulate sustainable initiatives in the private sector, while also reducing the risk of exposure to exchange rates. Although the exact value cannot be disclosed in order not to hinder competition among financial institutions, the auction is expected to provide around $1 billion in catalytic capital from the Climate Fund, with a requirement for leverage of at least one and a half times, the secretary said.
