Brazil’s current government and its largest contractor are trying to survive the latest episode in the country’s long-running construction bribery scandal. Market participants and observers are speculating on the future of Dilma Roussef’s government and contractor Odebrecht S.A. in the wake of a 19-year prison sentence a Brazilian judge gave the contractor’s former CEO Marcelo Odebrecht. The charges are linked to corruption and money-laundering charges in gaining work from Brazilian state-owned oil firm Petrobras.

在熔岩Jato腐败探针被捕后,Odebrecht和四个其他公司高管去年离开了该公司。公司创始人的后裔尚未说明他是否会呼吁判决或与检察官达成协议以减少它。SãoPaulo经纪商清晰的Troretora分析师Raphael Figuergeo告诉路透社,市场观察者已被“仔细注意这一调查的各种发展”。

OdeBrecht高管表示,该公司的全球多样化足以抵抗丑闻的影响。他们去年告诉恩,这项新利luck工作的三分之二在巴西以外。该公司在18个国家雇用了大约107,000名工人。但是,从银行到OdeBrecht的信贷,以及其他熔岩jato调查的承包商可能会迫使公司在基础设施优惠中销售有价值的赌注。OdeBrecht不会确认任何计划的销售额。

Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Brazilians demonstrated in early March to remove Roussef, who has been tarnished by the scandal, in what media say are the largest protests against her since she took office in 2011.
