Across Mountains and Oceans, Advancing with Resolve  Connecting Brazil and China through Bank-Grade Capabilities viaBravo! | CEO New Year Message 2026

Dear partners, clients, and friends,

As we stand at the transition from 2025 to 2026, we would like, on behalf of viaBravo!, to extend our sincere New Year greetings to all those who have followed and supported us along the way.

Over the past year, Brazil–China economic and trade relations have moved beyond a phase of pure scale expansion toward deeper local integration. We have observed that regulatory complexity and transparency of capital flows are no longer peripheral considerations, but have become core lifelines for businesses operating across borders. In Brazil, establishing a clear, controllable, and sustainable financial pathway has become a strategic imperative for all cross-border operators.

It is within this real-world context that viaBravo! has advanced steadily.

viaBravo! was founded by a group of professionals with long-standing experience across the financial markets of both China and Brazil. Our team brings more than a decade of hands-on experience in financial systems, cross-border operations, and regulatory environments in both countries, having directly participated in the continuous deepening of Brazil–China economic cooperation. At a time when Chinese enterprises are accelerating their global expansion and Brazil is increasingly becoming a key destination within that global strategy, viaBravo! was established at this critical juncture to provide clearer and more resilient financial support for real cross-border commercial activities.

As a technology-driven financial services institution focused on the Brazil–China market, viaBravo! has consistently designed its products and processes based on bank-grade service logic and risk control standards. Within existing regulatory frameworks, we have taken a disciplined and progressive approach to building our institutional capabilities.

In doing so, viaBravo! chose to anchor itself within mature and trusted global financial networks. Through collaboration with China UnionPay, alongside close coordination with local financial and technology partners in Brazil, we have been able to gradually establish stable and compliant capital channels between China and Brazil, while continuously strengthening our technological architecture and operational systems.

viaBravo! is not merely a payment tool. Rather, it is an architect of cross-border financial structures built on bank-grade principles. Leveraging over a decade of Brazil–China financial practice, we have deliberately chosen to operate within the most complex regulatory environments, working in deep coordination with China UnionPay and Brazil’s local clearing systems to construct compliant capital frameworks that serve real trade activities.

Looking ahead to 2026, viaBravo! will continue to advance steadily along its established path. Along a unified framework of capital flows and compliance, we will further deepen our financial service capabilities for both individuals and enterprises, while empowering Brazilian institutions and businesses through technology and collaborative models.

Finance is a marathon that rewards patience and discipline. In Brazil—an environment defined by rigorous regulation and a distinctive market structure—prudence itself represents the highest competitive threshold. In 2026, viaBravo! will continue to move forward along this path, providing long-term and reliable financial support to institutions and enterprises grounded in real economic activity.

Thank you for walking this journey with us.

We wish you a smooth and steady year ahead, and continued progress in all that you pursue.

viaBravo!
