Administrators and managers of Agricultural Investment Funds (FIAGRO) must apply the governance provisions of other Normative Annexes to CVM Resolution 175 when more than 50% of net assets are invested in eligible assets, excluding specific disclosure, portfolio classification, and quota holder assembly rules. FIAGROs investing in securitization certificates (CRA/CRI) or agricultural/real estate credit letters (LCA/LCI) may optionally apply Normative Annex II, as Normative Annex III adequately addresses the required governance. Funds adopting Normative Annex II are required to transmit information to the Central Bank's SCR system in the same manner and deadlines as FIDCs.

To Administrators and Managers of FIAGRO. Subject: Adaptation of FIAGRO to Normative Annex VI of CVM Resolution 175. Dear Sir/Madam,
I) General Guidelines
Art. 2 of Normative Annex VI of CVM Resolution 175 determines the subsidiary application of other normative annexes when the investment policy of FIAGRO allows for the application of more than 50% of its net assets in assets eligible for other fund categories.
Thus, it is understood that the provisions of the other annexes to be applied are those referring to the governance of invested assets for the execution of the investment policy, which includes, among others, the duties and responsibilities of service providers related to the execution of the policy and issues involving the administration and management of invested assets, provided there is no conflict with the provisions of Normative Annex VI.
In this context, the SSE considers that the disclosure of the specific informational regime of each Normative Annex, as well as the minimum portfolio classification requirements, are not covered, given that Normative Annex VI provides a complete and appropriate regime for FIAGRO, regardless of portfolio concentration. Furthermore, this technical area considers that the quota holder assembly rules provided in the other annexes are also not applicable, as there are specific provisions in Normative Annex VI on the subject.
Specifically for FIAGROs that may also adopt Normative Annex II, this SSE emphasizes the obligation for the administrator to send information to the Central Bank of Brazil's SCR System, as regulated by art. 31, items II and III, of the Annex. Thus, FIAGROs with an investment policy that allows for the application of more than 50% of net assets in credit rights must send information to the Central Bank of Brazil, in the same manner as FIDCs and within the same deadlines.

II) Investment in Receivables Certificates
Based on CVM Resolution 39, FIAGROs that invest in securities or capital market assets of securitization, notably Agricultural or Real Estate Receivables Certificates ("CRA" or "CRI"), were authorized to operate in the Real Estate Investment Fund - FII category, thus applying the provisions of Normative Annex III of CVM Resolution 175.
Given this scenario, this technical area understands that FIAGROs with a policy allowing investment of more than 50% in securitization assets, such as CRA and CRI, may continue to use Normative Annex III, in addition to Normative Annex VI. Thus, the use of Normative Annex II, for these cases, is optional.
This understanding arises from the fact that Normative Annex III adequately addresses the governance required of the administrator and manager to carry out investments in securitization assets.
These assets, in general, are regulated by CVM Resolution 60 and Law 14.430, and thus have distinct characteristics from a traditional credit right, considering the operation of securitization companies and fiduciary agents as service providers who have fiduciary duties towards investors. Thus, this extra layer of governance justifies the non-application of the requirements of Normative Annex II, or even of Normative Annex VI itself, regarding specific credit right requirements.
This understanding may be applied in case of eventual concentration of the FIAGRO's investment policy in Agricultural or Real Estate Credit Letters ("LCA" or "LCI"), which are also assets permitted for FIAGRO-FIIs governed by CVM Resolution 39.
Finally, in case of doubts, this Superintendence can be consulted via the emails gsec-1@cvm.gov.br and sse@cvm.gov.br.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Barião da Fonseca Braga
