Brazil – Exchange Rate
12
In 2016, the Brazilian Real is expected to decrease to 2.62 against USD
Recent collapse in crude oil prices have sent disruptive shocks to currencies and substantial policy adjustments is expected on the
BRL in the near term.
In an effort to address the macroeconomic imbalances and to recover investor confidence; major adjustments are expected and
Brazilian real (BRL) is likely to maintain a weakening bias over the next 6 months.
USDBRL is estimated to reach 2.60-2.70 range in 2015.
In order to handle the impact over inflation, a higher interest rate environment is expected in Brazil .
The year 2015 will be marked by a period of necessary adjustments, which in combination with a broad-based trend in favor of the
US dollar (USD), will likely exert depreciating pressures into the BRL.

Brazil is the major player in the export of Niobium, Iron Ore,
Manganese, Tantalite, Graphite, Bauxite and Ornamental
Rocks. It imports Copper, Diatomite, Phosphate and Zinc.
Production of iron ore is expected to increase by 451 million
tons by 2016.
Increase in Supply: Brazil along with Australia, two leading
iron ore producing countries are expected to increase their
supply to 90% by 2020.
Mining giants VALE and Rio Tinto continue to increase
output.
Fall in prices have been witnessed due to oversupply and
decrease in demand from the major consumer (China).

improved farm management practices, yields are expected to increase marginally at a national level.
Brazil’s Agriculture Research Corporation (Embrapa), Brazilian Association for Non-GE Producers (ABRANGE), and Mato Grosso
Soybean Producer’s Association (Aprosoja) launched “Free Soy” (“Soja Livre”) to pursue development of commercially competitive
non-GE varieties to aid Brazil’s continuing role as the main supplier of European and Asian markets of these products.

Recent discoveries of large offshore, pre-salt oil deposits could Increase domestic oil production
More than 90% of Brazil's oil production is offshore in very
deep water and consists of mostly heavy grades.
The world's largest oil discoveries in recent years have come
from Brazil's offshore, pre-salt basins.
Along with the potential to significantly increase oil production
in the country, the pre-salt areas are estimated to contain
sizable natural gas reserves as well.
In March 2013, Brazil launched a 10-year energy plan that
aims to expand oil production to over 5 million barrels/day by
2021, a decrease from its previous plan of over 6 million
barrels/day by 2020. The plan sets targets for oil exports of

Brazil is the world's largest beef exporter with the world's largest commercial cattle herd; however, the production cycle needs to be
more efficient to supply internal and external demands in the future.
Large farm land availability, ample feedstuffs supplies, a large domestic consumer market, and liberalization of trade barriers have
allowed large firms to achieve economies of size that have made the country a major, growing source of meat production.
Brazil dominated the South American market until it shifted from Venezuela towards the Middle East. Argentina filled the void and
surpassed Brazil in 2013 and have a market share of suppliers with about 41% followed by Brazil at 40%.

Brazil sells about 85% of production to the domestic market, and the rest goes to neighboring Argentina, a regional trade partner.
On the other hand, import duties paid by other foreign clients, Brazil's expensive labor, electricity and other costs have made the
country's vehicle sector uncompetitive.
Despite Brazil’s current severe economic slowdown, Brazilian car makers will have the capacity to manufacture six million veh icles
annually by 2017
Brazil has logged some new plants of its own. In 2014, Nissan opened a USD1.5 billion complex in Resende, and Chery Automobile
has a USD530 million factory in São Paulo state that will start production this year, marking the Chinese automaker’s first major
investment outside its home country. Source: International Trade Centre, thebrazilbusiness.com, businessweek.com, rolandberger.us

In 2013, the performance of Brazilian machine and equipment
sector was weaker than in 2012, with net revenues falling by
approximately 5%.
Exports decreased by 11%, while imports registered a 7%
increase.
Although some subsectors of the industry related to
agriculture and transport performed well, others linked to
infrastructure were hit by weak demand largely due to low
rate of investments.
However, government spending on infrastructure will continue
in the coming year of elections, a fact that will ensure a
steady demand for machinery and equipment.

The prospects for the sector are favorable due to expectations for continued domestic demand and recovery of the global markets.
Although imports will continue to affect the locally manufactured capital goods, analysts estimate that the volume of imports will
gradually fall in the coming years. Another boon for the sector is the forecast for about BRL 1.19 trillion worth of investments in
transport, logistic, sanitation, energy and real estate by 2018.

The recovery of the Brazilian shipbuilding industry was seen
as a prestige project of national importance, and a vote-

opportunities.
However, the picture for the Brazilian shipbuilding industry is
far from rosy as the global shipbuilding industry suffers from
major overcapacity.

Brazil’s state-owned Petrobras and its transportation subsidiary, Transpetro, are driving the majority of vessel constructions.
The largest ships for delivery are wholly owned by Transpetro while many of the other new buildings will ultimately end up operating

Ship completions during 2012 were dominated by the offshore support vessel sector, which accounted for 22 of the 29 vessels built.

Owing to many years of genetic improvement work, Brazil’s
eucalyptus plantations have the world’s best growth rates,
averaging about 40 m3 per hectare per year.
Brazilian industry is the world’s lowest cost producer of
bleached eucalyptus pulp. Brazil currently produces 12.8
million tons of market chemical pulp per year.
The social and economic development and the increase in
the population’s income have resulted in a greater demand

Optimistic perspectives in the economy and the demand from emerging markets maintain investment programs in the sector
By the end of 2017, when forests planted in 2010 will have completed a new growth cycle, pulp production is expected to go from
13.4 million to 20 million tons. During the same period, paper production will also increase from 9.3 million to 12.5 million tons, and
planted forest areas will be 25% larger.
In addition to high quality, Brazilian pulp is known for its environmental attributes, i.e., originates from 100% highly productive planted
forests, a renewable natural resource that absorbs and stores large CO2 volumes from the atmosphere.

Coffee, tea and spices – Suppliers in Brazil

Brazil is the largest producer of coffee followed by Vietnam, Colombia and Indonesia. Brazil contributes to about 30% of the global
coffee output.
Weather in Brazil's arabica-growing regions has been less than favorable and hence the industry has witnessed a surge in price for
Arabica coffee.
There has also been an expansion to the production of specialty teas such as herbal tea and fruit tea. Brazilian green tea is also
enjoying success. New plantations in the southern state of Paraná are steadily increasing their production of green tea.

Export of HS 88 series Aeronautical from Brazil (in USD Billions)
Industry Overview: According to the Brazilian General Aviation Association, Brazil has the third largest helicopter fleet in the world.
In 2012, there were 1,893 registered helicopters, mostly concentrated in the State of Sao Paulo (690), Minas Gerais (219), and Rio
de Janeiro (422). More than one third of the fleet is less than 5 years old.
Boeing and Airbus are contributing to the development of aircraft industry in Brazil by choosing the São José dos Campos
Technology Park as the site for their research and technology centers.
It is expected that Boeing’s research center will focus its work on sustainable biofuels for aviation, advanced traffic management,
advanced metals and biomaterials, and technology for support and services.
Aeronautical products must meet the Brazilian aeronautical requirements and obtain the certification issued by ANAC (Agencia
Nacional de Aviação Civil), the Brazilian agency responsible for the regulation and the safety of civil aviation. The certification is the
recognition that the design of a product is in accordance with the airworthiness requirements adopted by the country
