SAO PAULO, May 26 (Reuters) – Bank of America expects at least ​10 initial public ‌offerings (IPOs) by Brazilian companies in 2027, executives told reporters on Tuesday.

• Listings expected ‌to ​take place both ⁠in Brazil ⁠and the United States.

• Deals should start at around $500 million to attract ​investors and ensure sufficient liquidity, said Bruno ⁠Saraiva, BofA’s ⁠co-head of Investment ​Banking Brazil and head of ​Equity Capital Markets Latin ‌America.

• Compass Gas e Energia completed an IPO earlier this month, ⁠ending a nearly five-year drought on Brazil’s B3 stock exchange.

• ⁠Despite ‌the local drought, ⁠Brazilian companies such ​as ‌digital bank PicPay ​and fintech ⁠Agibank have been able to list shares on U.S. exchanges.
