Macquarie in Brazil: Strengthening Three Forces of Brazil’s Global Influence

Brazil is widely known for its Carnival, but in November 2025, it will also host the United Nations Climate Change Conference – COP30 – in Belém, the gateway to the Amazon rainforest. This event arrives at a pivotal moment for the country.

After a recent economic rebound and amidst shifting geopolitical dynamics, Brazil continues to act as an independent player in a multipolar world. Its position as a top exporter of agricultural and mineral resources, alongside its growing role in energy production, makes Brazil a key focus for international business and investment.

Brazil’s Global Leadership in Trade, Energy, and Infrastructure

Brazil is advancing in international trade, sustainable energy, and infrastructure development, which is driving its global leadership in decarbonisation and economic resilience. These sectors are shaping the country's evolving business environment.

Macquarie has supported Brazil's rise on the world stage for over 25 years by leveraging its expertise in these key areas.

Brazil’s Strategic Role in South America

As South America’s largest and most populous nation, Brazil has historically led the continent by enhancing its infrastructure and building strategic partnerships. These efforts have strengthened its role in international commerce.

"Brazil’s role as a leading exporter of agricultural and mineral resources and its growing significance in energy production ensures it’s increasingly a focal point for international business and investment."

"The country’s ongoing advances in international trade, sustainable energy, and infrastructure are also positioning it as a global leader in decarbonisation and economic resilience."

Brazil’s hosting of COP30 in Belém underscores its commitment to global climate action while reinforcing its strategic influence on multiple fronts.

Macquarie’s longstanding partnership with Brazil highlights the country’s expanding impact in global markets through sustainable growth and resilience.
