      CETIP FORECASTS PEAK CAPEX IN 3Q16 AND NORMALIZATION STARTING 4Q16, OF 5 TO 6% OF REVENUE.

      São Paulo, 08/05/2016 - After Cetip's investments in the second quarter of the year totaled R$ 29.3 million - an increase of 114.3% compared to the same period last year-, Cetip forecasts peak capex in 3Q16. According to the CEO of the company, Gilson Finkelsztain, the expectation is that on 4Q16, the investment level will be normalized, with an expenditure between 5% and 6% of the revenue.

      "We can consider an anticipation of capex, anticipating the future years, with concentrated investments in 2016", said the executive in a conference call with analysts.

      Much of this capex growth in the 2Q16 was due to investments in new data centers in Barueri, in connection with the relocation of the technology and operations areas of the Securities business to the new headquarter.

      Investments from April to June were: 56.7% for maintenance and expansion of capacity, 38.0% for product development, and 5.4% for offices settlement.

      Product development capex from April to June was allocated mainly among the following products: Big Data, CCP; Contracts System, Depository, Electronic Appraisal Report, Liens on Financial Instruments, and Real Estate Platform.
