  "account": "Brazil's largest mall owner, Multiplan, has raised US$59 million through a CRI-backed debt offering. This investment was approved on August 7, 2026, to fund new property acquisitions. Multiplan, which owns a significant portfolio of shopping centers, tapped the market for R$300 million (approximately US$58.7 million) in a popular real-estate credit instrument known as a CRI. This move highlights the demand for real-estate credit, even with the Selic rate at its current level. A CRI, or Certificado de Recebíveis Imobiliários, is a Brazilian fixed-income security backed by real-estate receivables, typically generated from mall leases and property sales. This structure often offers lower costs for issuers compared to traditional bank loans and provides tax benefits for individual investors. Multiplan's decision to raise capital via this route suggests confidence in its growth prospects and the overall health of Brazil's credit market.",
