CMN bans credit receivables funds from buying uncertain court claims and requires new valuation of those already in portfolios
The National Monetary Council approved on September 24 changes to the rules for credit receivables investment funds that ban purchases of credits arising from lawsuits or arbitration that still lack liquidity, certainty and enforceability. According to CVM data, the funds had about R$ 35.2 billion exposed to court claims in July. Credits already in portfolios are not eliminated, but from January 4, 2027 they require stricter valuation methods, with independent audit and more transparency. The changes come amid anti-money laundering operations involving funds, such as Carbono Oculto.
