2. PAS 19957.008992/2023–47: Gafisa SA, Guilherme Augusto Soares Benevides and Ian Masini Monteiro de Andrade.

The PFE-CVM concluded that there isn’t a authorized obstacle to the execution of the settlement, subsequently, the CTC thought-about it acceptable and handy to simply accept the settlement.
“The Board adopted the CTC’s opinion and accepted the signing of a Dedication Time period with B Fintech Serviços de Tecnologia Ltda.” CVM Acknowledged.
