Continuing this transformation process, the executive structured the Company in business units and later in independent companies.

As part of this process led by the executive and carried out by more than 36,000 employees of the group, Simpar has been expanding greatly in the segments of mobility, infrastructure and sanitation – sectors that are essential and present in the real economy – and providing financial products and services, consolidating it as one of Brazil’s largest corporate groups. These represent our culture and values fostering the group’s development.
