Bradespar S.A. Overview

Pro stress-test →

Bradespar is a Brazilian holding company headquartered in São Paulo, formed in 2000 by Banco Bradesco to spin off industrial investments. The company's primary investment is in mining multinational Vale, where it is one of the largest shareholders. Bradespar generates returns through dividends and equity gains from its portfolio stake in Vale.

Strategic Profile

Pro stress-test →

Bradespar is a holding company whose main activity is to participate in other companies as a partner or shareholder. Operating income derives from equity, dividends and interest on equity received from Vale, and interest on redeemable shares. The company's value proposition centers on providing leveraged exposure to global commodity markets through a world-class mining operator.
