O National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) denied on Monday, the 23rd, that there is any initiative to sell its stake in the food giant JBS. The development bank also stressed, in a note to the report of Broadcast (Grupo Estado's real-time news system), which disallows “any financial institutions mandated to speak on its behalf”.
The note was a response to information published by the NeoFeed portal that BNDES was preparing to sell between R$8 billion and R$10 billion in JBS shares this year, in an offering that would be managed by the banks Citi and Santander.
“BNDES is unaware of any initiative related to the sale of its shares in JBS through a public offering and disauthorizes any alleged financial institutions mandated to speak on its behalf,” the development bank said in a note signed by its press office.
