At a market presentation ceremony, Brazil Securities Commission President Otto Lobo and Director Igor Muniz outlined priorities for restructuring the authority around technology, tokenization and stronger capital markets supervision. Lobo, who took office in June 2026, called for data based regulation and the use of artificial intelligence to identify risks earlier, while maintaining equivalent protection for equivalent risks and proportionate rules for different risks. Under the approved emergency restructuring plan, investment will focus on staff, infrastructure, systems and training. The commission plans to build supervisory infrastructure capable of monitoring traditional markets and the on-chain layer of digital assets through market surveillance, blockchain analysis and AI supported transaction risk tracking. Muniz emphasized clear enforcement priorities, improved processes and measurable results demonstrating that additional resources are strengthening the commission’s effectiveness.
