This initiative is part of Brazil's efforts to attract more capital into environmentally friendly sectors and promote sustainable development. By offering FX hedging options, the government aims to provide a more secure investment environment for those looking to fund green initiatives in the country.

The $2 billion allocation for the FX hedging program underscores Brazil's commitment to fostering a green economy and encouraging investment in renewable energy, conservation, and other sustainable practices.
