Petrobras Aims to Sell Its Entire Stake in Braskem by Next Year
Petrobras announced on May 25 that it intends to divest its entire stake in the petrochemical Braskem through operations in the capital markets.
The information was provided by the president of the company, Roberto Castello Branco, who projected that the deal could occur by early 2021.
At the beginning of this month, the executive stated that Petrobras was interested in selling its stake in Braskem and that the company has the support of Odebrecht to sell the petrochemical.
“We believe it is feasible by the end of the year; if not, at the beginning of next year, to sell this stake,” said Castello Branco while participating in a live broadcast from Genial Investimentos.
The path to make the divestment viable involves Braskem’s migration to the Novo Mercado of the stock exchange, converting all the company’s shares into common shares, which is already a subject of discussions between Petrobras and Odebrecht, the state-owned partner in the petrochemical and holder of 50.1% of the voting shares.
