In a report by Jaqueline Mendes published on Oct 28, 2026, Capital Aberto spoke with our partner Bruno Amatuzzi about the effects of the end of the 6×1 work schedule on construction contracts and on CRI transactions.
It is necessary to demonstrate an extraordinary and unforeseeable impact that unbalances the contract.
In his view, case law treats this as an entrepreneurial risk, and claiming unforeseeability becomes harder for contracts signed after the bill was approved by the Chamber of Deputies in May 2026.
On CRI (Brazilian real estate receivables certificates) transactions, another remark from Bruno:
If the SPE or its shareholders do not have the funds to do so, the transaction may come under stress, since, as a result of the CRI issuance, the SPE generally cannot take on other debt or financing without the prior and express approval of the holders.
