  • Federal Reserve Chair Janet L. Yellen, At the Providence Chamber of Commerce, Providence, Rhode Island, May 22, 2015, The Outlook For The Economy

    Date 22/05/2015

    Good afternoon. I am pleased to be with you, and it is good to be back in Providence. As many of you know, I attended Brown University, and the city I see today is very different from the one I remember from my time here in the 1960s. Many of those differences reflect dramatic and, at times, wrenching economic changes in Rhode Island over those years, especially since the financial crisis and the Great Recession. As ever, Providence has faced these challenges, and I am impressed by the revival and renewal evident downtown, encouraged by attractions like Waterfire, which bring visitors and commerce here and build civic pride.

  • Foreign Investor Access To The Brazilian Market Now More Dynamic

    Date 22/05/2015

    Nonresident investors’ access to the Brazilian market has become faster, easier and cheaper. BM&FBOVESPA and the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service have helped the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM) to develop the  Sistema de Investidores Estrangeiros (foreign investors system), which creates a more dynamic trading authorization process. One of the main changes is an automatic process for granting individual taxpayer numbers (CPFs) to new investors classified as natural persons.  Previously, before they could start trading, investors had to request that the consulate or embassy in their locality register them with the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, for a CPF number. They then had to request that their global custodian register them with CVM. This tended to be a drawn out process. While this first model is being maintained, from now on both of these requests will be made automatically by the global custodian.  As a result, investors’ registration requests will be attended to immediately, both at CVM and at the Brazilian Revenue Service. The change also reduces administration costs and the time it takes to receive authorization.
