According to the BNDES, “it is the first time that the bank supports the manufacture of goods with technology 4.0 for export by a Brazilian company”.
“The credit operation is an important milestone for the BNDES in supporting Brazilian exports of high technology goods, a sector that employs qualified labor and is capable of generating innovations with positive impacts on the country’s economy, in addition to enabling the Brazilian manufacturer to compete on an equal footing with its competitors in the foreign market”, said, in writing in the note, the director of Bruno Aranha, director of Productive and Socio-environmental Credit at the BNDES.
The bank also informed that the high-performance machining equipment manufactured by Romi was classified in the newly created category of “Efficient Equipment”, within the scope of the BNDES Exim Pre-shipment.
