Os segredos da tesouraria e as maiores crises do mercado

Luan Aral interviews Roberto Motta to reveal the inconvenient truths of Brazil's largest treasury departments and trading desks. From his chaotic entry into Banco Prosper at age 19, through the chaos of 40% interest rates during the Asian Crisis, the collapse of Banco Marca, and the panic of 9/11 while operating at Unibanco, Motta explains in detail how large corporate players like Petrobras distort the flow of the dollar, why Aracruz and Sadia went bankrupt in 2008 betting on toxic derivatives, and how Brazil became the only country where futures contracts manipulate the spot market.
