Infrastructure: A Priority for Brazil• The infrastructure sector is a priority to the Brazilian government’s economic expansion project, • Brazil is one of the most urbanized emerging countries (84% of the population lives in urban areas) .This high
degree of urbanization underscores the importance of improving and expanding urban infrastructure in sectors• The round of new concessions published by the government lists 34 projects, including airports, highways,
railways, ports, energy and water and wastewater projects across Brazil.
• According to industry analysis, the country would need to invest about 3% of GDP just to cover the wear of physical capital and the modernization of the infrastructure would require investments of 5.5% of GDP per year, continuously, and for two decades.
• Overall planned investments in the rail sector represent the purchase of 16 thousand cars over five years, In addition to the expected purchase, by current concessionaries, of other 18.000 wagons and 600 locomotives to replace the fleet of old Federal Railways , which has more than 40 years.
• The State of São Paulo has an ambitious PPP plan that includes the construction/expansion of highways and subways, as well as projects in greenfield projects in health, housing and urban transit.
• Other opportunities can be explored with concessionaries of subway, highways and railways, which have on-going upgrade process. The current railway concessions have been extended for another 30 years, and are expected to generate investments of over C$ 10 billion in modernization and up-grades.
• Business opportunities can be explored in all segments of the infrastructure value-chain and Brazilian companies are open to the various business formats that may be
required.
Clear Demand• Brazil's logistics infrastructure has long been identified as deficient and as one of the major factors limiting
domestic integration, external competitiveness and the country's economy growth. Current infrastructure is not adequate to support income levels and foster regional integration and put Brazil on a more competitive footing against rivals in main export products which include some of the advanced economies of the world.
• Brazil ranked 120 out of 144 countries surveyed by the World Economic Forum in 2014, with particularly poor results for roads and air transport quality. Less than 15 percent of the country’s roads are paved --including municipal roads.
• Brazil is one of the most urbanized emerging countries (84% of the population lives in urban areas). This high degree of urbanization underscores the importance of improving and expanding urban infrastructure in sectors such as water and sanitation, mobility, education, health.
• Most of the major local infrastructure companies are undergoing re-structuring due corruption investigations and their participation in projects have dropped considerably. New players, mostly mid-sized companies, are filling the void, but with a much more limited financial capacity.
• The new government has taken a more market-friendly approach in new projects announced for concessions and PPP.
