OFFICIAL NOTICE TO IMAC REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS AND CONSULTANTS SUBJECT:
IMPLEMENTATION OF MANDATORY PROCEDURES FOR THE PRESENTATION OF ASSETS, PROJECTS AND INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
Dear representatives, agents, consultants, and partners of INTERNATIONAL MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION CHAMBER LLC – IMAC,
Due to the increasing number of international offers received by IMAC involving farms, rural properties, mining operations, agricultural projects, energy ventures, livestock operations, and other investment opportunities originating from Brazil and various Latin American countries, it has become necessary to implement new mandatory procedures regarding qualification, identification, and responsibility of proponents.
Over the past months, we have observed a significant increase in proposals submitted without adequate documentation, without proof of legitimacy, without formal authorization for representation, and in some cases clearly characterized by speculative or informal conduct.
IMAC maintains a strong institutional commitment to:
- transparency;
- legal security;
- international compliance;
- commercial credibility;
- investor protection;
- and integrity in international negotiations.
Our international investors and strategic partners — especially investment groups, corporate entities, and Arab investors — require a high standard of governance, document organization, operational traceability, and professional credibility.
For this reason, it is now mandatory that every opportunity submitted to IMAC include, at minimum, the following:
- Full identification of the individual or legal entity responsible for the offer;
- Proof of ownership or formal authorization of representation;
- Execution of the “TERM OF RESPONSIBILITY, LEGITIMACY AND AUTHORIZATION FOR INTERNATIONAL PRESENTATION”;
- Acceptance of compliance, due diligence, and document verification procedures;
- Acknowledgment of IMAC’s commercial protection and non-circumvention policies;
- Prior definition of commission and intermediation conditions.
These measures are not intended to hinder legitimate business opportunities, but rather to protect:
- IMAC representatives;
- investors;
- legitimate property owners;
- and the institutional reputation of the organization itself.
We must understand that international investors evaluate not only the asset or project being presented, but also:
- the credibility of those presenting it;
- the level of document security;
- the institutional organization involved;
- and the reliability of the intermediaries participating in the operation.
The absence of proper controls may result in:
- loss of credibility;
- legal exposure;
- negative international reputation;
- commission disputes;
- fraudulent schemes;
- and institutional damage before strategic investors.
Furthermore, IMAC does not intend to serve as a platform for speculators, unauthorized intermediaries, or individuals lacking legitimate authority over the opportunities being presented.
Under this new directive, only opportunities that are properly registered, documented, and approved may be officially presented through IMAC’s institutional platform.
We ask all representatives and agents to fully cooperate with this new institutional policy, understanding that these measures will strengthen:
- our operational security;
- our international image;
- our ability to close real operations;
- and our credibility before global investors.
We are building a serious, organized, and respected international platform.
And serious organizations must operate under clear rules, documentary responsibility, and high governance standards.
Sincerely,
Calby Paiva
President
INTERNATIONAL MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION CHAMBER LLC – IMAC
