Agencia Estado, Brazil’s leading news agency, is launching AE Brazil.com, a comprehensive online service of financial, political and business news from Brazil.

AE Brazil.com was designed for international traders and analysts looking for up-to-the-minute Brazilian news.

Initially, AE Brazil.com will be available to all readers, until May 23. Afterwards, the web site will be exclusive to subscribers. Using the site, readers will find the very latest information on Brazil’s financial markets and commodities, as well as news about companies and political developments.

In addition, AE-Brazil offers a constant 15-minute update of key financial indices — including Brazil’s benchmark Ibovespa equity index. A 30-day performance record on both Ibovespa and Dow Jones industrial average is available, as well quotes for Brazilian ADRs and debt bonds.

The site also includes weekly reports from investment banks and analysts on crucial aspects of Brazil’s economics and politics, as well as the latest data on Brazil’s economic performance.
