Investors say Brazil survived Asia woes-BankBoston

Reuters, Tuesday, March 24, 1998 at 19:46

BRASILIA, March 24 (Reuters) - BankBoston Corp. (NYSE:BKB)
President Henrique de Campos Meirelles said Tuesday that global
investors are feeling increasingly confident Brazil has
survived well the fallout from Asia's financial crisis.
"There is a consensus among investors that Brazil has
overcome well the Asian crisis," he told reporters after
meeting President Fernando Henrique Cardodo.
Meirelles said BankBoston plans to invest $90 million in
Brazil this year and expand its existing 44-branch network in
the country to 64 offices by the end of 1999. Over the years,
BankBoston has invested $8.0 billion in Brazil.
Meirelles said he and several BankBoston board members met
with Cardoso on Tuesday and discussed the government's policies
on health care, education, privatization and economic
stability.
He described the meeting as "very positive" and said it
was, "important for foreign businessmen to hear the president's
outlook for Brazil."
