Macquarie in Brazil: Strengthening Three Forces of Brazil’s Global Influence
Brazil is known worldwide for its Carnival, but in November 2025 it will host another major event — the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP30. The conference will take place in Belém, the gateway to the Amazon rainforest, making it a fitting location at a pivotal moment for global environmental discussions.
With an economic rebound in recent years, evolving geopolitical conditions, and its steady stance as an independent actor in a multipolar world, Brazil has become a key player on the global stage. The nation’s status as a leading exporter of agricultural and mineral goods, along with its expanding role in energy production, continues to attract growing international attention and investment.
Brazil’s progress in international trade, renewable energy, and infrastructure development is turning it into a global leader in decarbonisation and economic resilience. These strengths are shaping Brazil’s modern business landscape.
“Together, these pillars are shaping Brazil’s business landscape, with Macquarie’s expertise in these areas supporting the nation’s growing global influence over the past quarter of a century.”
As South America’s largest and most populous nation, Brazil has long led the continent in advancing infrastructure and building strategic global partnerships that enhance its position in international commerce.
