  • Formed in 2017 from the merger of BM&FBOVESPA and Cetip, combining equities, derivatives and OTC registration.
  • The Ibovespa, the benchmark since 1968, is weighted by free float and tradability rather than pure capitalisation.
  • Brazilian companies commonly list preferred shares (PN), which is why the numeric suffix is part of every ticker.
  • B3 sells historical data through its market data services; daily quotes are published in COTAHIST files free of charge.
