The Brazilian Superintendence of Private Insurance (SUSEP), represented by director Carlos Queiroz, took part in The Surety Academy podcast to explain the prudential criteria it applies when issuing SUSEP certificates and how these certificates are used in the issuance of surety bond insurance, using the recently issued PGFN Ordinance 2,044/2025 as a reference point. The discussion covered how SUSEP’s prudential parameters can support the identification of insurers deemed able to offer surety bonds and what is flagged in the certificate regarding the prudential position of supervised entities. SUSEP framed the certificate as an essential document for the acceptance and renewal of guarantees in federal tax enforcement proceedings and in administrative negotiations with the federal tax authorities. The podcast episode was released in two parts.
