Solutions enable investment in infrastructure and services for environmental and socioeconomic development of regions where it operates. This is the main contribution to Brazil's economic and social development by CCR, which is one of the largest private infrastructure groups in the world, involved in the highway concession, passenger transportation, and environmental vehicular inspection sectors.
CCR is currently responsible for 2,437 kilometers of highways within the Nation's system that is under concession in the States of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Paraná, under the management of the CCR Ponte, CCR NovaDutra, CCR ViaLagos, CCR RodoNorte, CCR AutoBAn, CCR ViaOeste, CCR RodoAnel, SPVias and Renovias, of which it holds a 40% share. It also has 38.25% of the capital of STP, which operates the Sem Parar and Via Fácil electronic payment systems.
Besides its work in the area of highway concessions, the company's growth strategy includes diversifying its portfolio. For that reason, in November 2006, in conjunction with the State of São Paulo, CCR signed the Nation's first PPP (Public-Private Partnership): Line 4 of the São Paulo Metro, operated and maintained by the ViaQuatro concessionaire, which has four international partners and is led by CCR. The line connects the city center with the west side, and was inaugurated during the first half of this year. It should serve one million people when it is fully operational.
Another important step for CCR's qualified growth was taken in 2009, when the company concluded the acquisition of 45% of the capital of the Controlar concessionaire, which is responsible for the environmental vehicular inspection of all motor vehicles in the city of São Paulo.
The capital markets are also a part of the company's growth and consolidation platform. In February 2002, CCR was listed with the Novo Mercado (New Market) of the BM&FBOVESPA (São Paulo Stock Exchange), the first to join the Exchange's most demanding segment. The company recently held a new stock issue, which increased its percentage of shares on the Exchange to 48.78%.
Today, CCR is one of the most award-winning and recognized companies of the domestic capital market, due to its constant use of best practices of corporate governance. The company is also listed with the IBrX-50, IBrX-100, MSCI Latin America, and IBOVESPA indexes, the latter being the most important Brazilian stock market.
