Application

In cases when support is requested by a company that produces goods which are included in Groups I and II from the list of eligible products, report to the accredited financing institution of your choice, which will request the necessary documentation, analyze the possibility of granting credit and negotiate the guarantees and collateral. After the financing institution approval, the transaction will be submitted to the BNDES for ratification and the later disbursement of resources.

In other cases, and whenever the applicant is a trading company or a commercial exporter company, the request for financing should be presented to the BNDES by the interested party or through an accredited financing institution.
