#173: Tokenized Credit: Brazil's Next Export with Paulo David of AmFi
Brazil Crypto Report
Paulo David is CEO of AmFi. He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss how his platform is revolutionizing access to Brazilian private credit markets through asset tokenization.
As a third-time entrepreneur who previously built and sold two major fintechs including Grafeno, Paulo brings deep expertise in Brazil's capital markets infrastructure. The conversation explores how Brazil's position as having the world's second-highest interest rates creates a unique opportunity to export this yield to global investors through blockchain technology.
Paulo explains how AmFi is addressing critical market inefficiencies including lack of transparency, limited accessibility, and absence of secondary markets that have historically prevented foreign capital from entering Brazilian private credit.
He also discusses the platform's expansion strategy targeting Southeast Asia and the Middle East, and how democratizing access to these high-yield instruments can ultimately reduce borrowing costs and improve credit access for Brazilian businesses.
