Brazil taps Japan investors

Article Abstract:

Brazil is selling bonds to Japan, and reaping the benefits, due to the fact that Japanese companies are selling fewer bonds in order to decrease their level of debt. The Japanese are not investing in the domestic market, because the interest rates are too low. Kenjiro Kitayama, a banker of capital markets at Nomura Securities, estimates that about 85% of the bonds sold from Brazil will be bought by foreign investors.
