List Of Over 9 Thousand Products Released; Brazil Sovereign Plan Measure Aims To Protect Exporters With R$ 30 Billion In Financing.

The Government of Brazil published this Friday (12) the list of products that provide access to the emergency credit line of the Brazil Sovereign program. The table was created to support exporters affected by the additional tariffs unilaterally imposed by the United States government. The action is a decisive step to operationalize the set of measures to protect the national economy.

Understand The Brazil Sovereign Program And The Response To U.S. Tariffs

The Brazil Sovereign Plan was launched on August 13 as a direct response to the increase of up to 50% in import tariffs on Brazilian products. Its actions aim to protect exporters, preserve jobs, and encourage investments in strategic sectors. The plan is divided into three pillars: strengthening the productive sector, protecting workers, and commercial diplomacy.

Eligible Products: The Lists Of The Common Nomenclature Of Mercosur (NCM)

The Joint Ordinance MDIC/MF No. 4, of September 11, 2025, details the list of products. In total, there are 9,777 codes from the Common Nomenclature Of Mercosur (NCM), divided into two categories:

Credit Details: R$ 30 Billion From The Export Guarantee Fund (FGE)

The Brazil Sovereign Plan guarantees R$ 30 billion from the Export Guarantee Fund (FGE) to provide credit at accessible rates. Access priority will be given to companies that registered, between July 2024 and June 2025, at least 5% of their total revenue coming from exports of the impacted products. For companies with lower percentages, BNDES will provide another R$ 10 billion, also with below-market interest rates.

What Are The Criteria For Companies To Access The Financing?

To qualify, the company must be in good standing with the Federal Revenue of Brazil (RFB) and the National Treasury Attorney General’s Office (PGFN). Companies in judicial or extrajudicial recovery, bankruptcy, or liquidation cannot benefit unless they have a recovery plan already approved by a court.

Timelines, Limits, And Purposes Of The Available Credit Lines

The conditions were regulated by the National Monetary Council. The lines are for working capital, production of affected goods, acquisition of capital goods, and investments.

Timelines: The operations range from 5 to 10 years, with grace periods of 12 to 24 months.
Investment Limits: The maximum value per borrower for the acquisition of capital goods and investments is R$ 150 million.
Working Capital Limits: For large companies, the limit is R$ 200 million. For medium, small, and micro-enterprises, the maximum amount is R$ 35 million.

The measure does not generate expenses with an impact on the primary result, as the financing is reimbursable and the risks are assumed by financial institutions.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

A 250-ton transformer traveled 1,929 km by road in India on a slow and planned journey that demonstrates how the power grid relies on giant loads, detours, and impossible routes for regular trucks.

African country launched a $145 million project to rehabilitate 35 dams and drill deep wells seeking water stored for millennia beneath the desert, a plan that Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s government presents as a path to the country’s water sovereignty.

A 400-meter colossus powered by natural gas has just set sail from Shanghai to Europe, carrying over 24,000 containers. It is the world’s largest dual-fuel container ship and can cross the planet without refueling even once.

The largest highway concession company in Brazil already belongs to an Italian group, and now the railway sector may be next to receive billions in investments from Italy amid the progress of the Mercosur and European Union agreement.

A new study overturns the central idea we learned about planets and suggests that Earth is the exception rather than the rule; most rocky worlds in the galaxy may not have a core or mantle, just a single turbulent fluid extending to the center.

Almost no ship sails directly between South America and Australia, and the reason is a combination of the vast distance, winds that circle the planet nonstop, and the absence of ports along the way, leaving the South Pacific as a water desert.

Work less and earn the same? PEC discussed by Lula and Hugo Motta affects the 6×1 schedule and reignites the debate on working hours, days off, and salary in Brazil.

Companies from Ceará generate billions and dominate Brazil without many people noticing, with giants born in the state such as Hapvida, Pague Menos, M. Dias Branco, and Três Corações totaling almost R$ 104 billion in revenue just in 2024.

A ton of old cell phones can contain up to 800 times more gold than a ton of ore extracted from a mine, according to the UN, and it is this hidden wealth in drawers that drives so-called urban mining, which can even be turned into Olympic medals.

The world opens its eyes to PIX invented in Brazil after the system moved R$ 35.6 trillion, expanded in countries like France, Portugal, Argentina, and Paraguay, and threatened card giants like Visa and Mastercard with high growth and record adoption.
