São Paulo Judge Dismisses Bradesco Suit Alleging Asset Concealment at Ambipar

The judge found no present evidence of fraud or asset dissipation by controller Tércio Borlenghi.

Overview

  • Judge Ana Laura Correa Rodrigues of the São Paulo 3rd Civil Court rejected Bradesco’s filing and extinguished the case without a ruling on the merits.
  • Bradesco had sought to bar Borlenghi from selling assets and alleged he engaged in conduct to defraud creditors and conceal property.
  • The decision says there are no concrete indications of concealment or dissipation of assets and characterizes the situation as a punctual financial issue.
  • Separately in Rio de Janeiro, Ambipar is suing Bradesco and Opportunity, alleging they prematurely enforced guarantees tied to Borlenghi.
  • Ambipar’s shares have dropped about 90% on B3 in recent weeks during the company’s legal and financial turmoil.
