Opinion of Amec – An inspiring speech
The speech delivered by the president of CVM (the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission), Leonardo Pereira, in the 6th International Financial and Capital Markets Conference organized by BMF Bovespa in the city of Campos do Jordão, State of São Paulo, was particularly relevant and interesting for being focused on the core of CVM´s activities.

For approximately 40 minutes, our capital market´s regulator provided the some 600 attendees with a broad view of its priorities and initiatives. Attentive participants left the event with a clear perception of the direction the regulation agency will be taking for the next years, as well as of some points CVM has been preparing in the technical sphere.
