Braskem is trading at BRL 5.33, up +5.75%, after Braskem Idesa announced a consensual restructuring and U.S. Chapter 11 filing on August 18, 2026.

• It includes US$476 million in Braskem funding.
• The move likely reflects restructuring relief, despite Braskem’s restricted-default concerns and ongoing creditor negotiations.
