Abstract/Description:

The Cédula de Produto Rural (CPR) has revolutionized the way primary agriculture is financed in Brazil since its launch in the mid-1970s. Technically strong and practically simple, the CPR’s potential influence is considerable and goes well beyond Brazil. The chapter presents the instrument, its uses, its evolution through the years, as well as how it could be improved and exported to other markets.
