"elected Mr. Felipe Santana Santiago de Lima as Executive Vice President, Financial & Investor Relations"
Board of Directors financial
"its Board of Directors has elected Mr. Felipe Santana Santiago de Lima"
The Board of Directors is a group of people chosen by a company's owners to help make big decisions and oversee how the company is run. They act like a team of advisors or managers, making sure the company stays on track and meets its goals. Their choices can influence the company's success and how it grows.
capital markets financial
"with exposure to capital markets, liability management, relationships with investors"
Capital markets are places where people and organizations buy and sell long-term investments like stocks and bonds. They help connect those who need money to grow or fund projects with investors looking to earn returns over time. For investors, capital markets are important because they offer opportunities to invest, save, and grow their wealth through a variety of financial assets.
liability management financial
"with exposure to capital markets, liability management, relationships with investors"
Liability management is a company’s plan for handling its debts and obligations—such as refinancing, repaying, or reshaping payment terms—to reduce cost and risk. Like reorganizing household bills or refinancing a mortgage to lower monthly payments, it matters to investors because it affects a firm’s cash flow, creditworthiness and the likelihood of meeting obligations, which in turn can influence stock and bond values.
risk management financial
"aircraft financing, and risk management, in addition to extensive experience leading teams"
Risk management is the ongoing process of identifying potential events or conditions that could reduce an investment’s value, measuring how likely and how severe those losses could be, and putting controls in place to limit harm—like spreading money across different assets, setting loss limits, or buying insurance. For investors it matters because it turns uncertainty into a manageable plan, helping preserve capital and steady returns much like a seatbelt or a spare tire reduces the downside of unexpected problems.
