The depreciation of the Brazilian real, now the world's worst-performing currency, is causing significant financial strain on companies with dollar-denominated debts. Amid rising local interest rates, many firms face escalating costs as they struggle to manage their financial obligations. Businesses in various sectors, including airlines and real estate, are particularly affected, leading to concerns about potential restructurings if the currency remains weak. Analysts warn that the economic landscape may worsen as Brazil's central bank raises rates to combat inflation.
