Chief executive officer Luiz Policarpo said importers, exporters, cargo agents, and logistics operators face "volatilidade cambial, mudanças regulatórias, oscilações de frete, riscos geopolíticos" — currency swings, regulation changes, freight shifts, and geopolitical risk — daily.

Why now? "O investimento muda nossa velocidade, não nossa direção," Policarpo said — the investment changes the company's speed, not its direction.
