The loan contracted by Correios had a total value of R$ 12 billion. Despite this, the Treasury report mentions a guarantee of R$ 10 billion for the operation.

The contract was signed at the end of December with a group of five banks. Bradesco, Itaú, Santander, Caixa, and Banco do Brasil are participating in the agreement.

The operation will last 15 years, with a term until 2040. The period was defined in the agreement signed between Correios and the financial institutions.

In addition to Correios, two other state-owned companies have loans guaranteed by the Union through the National Treasury. Eletronuclear appears with the second largest volume, of R$ 2.679 billion.

Eletronuclear’s participation corresponds to 0.8% of all Treasury guarantees. In third place is Eletrobrás, with R$ 197.3 million, equivalent to 0.1% of the guarantees.

The total amount of loans guaranteed for state-owned companies by the Treasury is R$ 12.87 billion. As Correios account for R$ 10 billion of this amount, the state-owned company’s participation corresponds to 77.7% of the total.
