ALTAPREV
ALTAPREV is the Social Security Institute for Public Servants of the Municipality of Altamira, established to administer retirement pensions and related benefits for municipal employees. Its governance ties directly to the mayor's office, with the Prefeito of Altamira, Claudomiro Gomes da Silva, holding appointment authority over the board and executive leadership. The fund is domiciled in Altamira, Pará — a municipality that is among the largest by area in Brazil — and operates from offices on Rua Sete de Setembro in the Esplanada do Xingu neighborhood. As a Brazilian Regime Próprio de Previdência Social (RPPS) fund, ALTAPREV deploys capital within the strict parameters set by the National Monetary Council for public pension assets. The portfolio, estimated at $8.6M (Altss estimate), is expected to be heavily weighted toward government bonds and fixed-income instruments, consistent with the regulatory safe-harbor allocations that dominate this segment. Brazilian municipal RPPS funds of ALTAPREV's scale rarely execute direct deals, instead accessing public equities and infrastructure via regulated local funds. The fund is a member of ABIPEM, the national association that advocates for the interests of state and municipal pension institutions across Brazil. ALTAPREV maintains a lean operational footprint typical of small municipal RPPS funds, with no additional offices or dedicated investment-outpost structure beyond its Altamira headquarters. Nazaré do Socorro Viana de Sousa serves as Administrative/Financial Director, while Graziela Cristina Matias de Souza oversees benefits — reflecting an organizational split between asset custody and liability management. The fund discloses operational and investment data through its official portal to comply with municipal transparency mandates. The structural distinction of ALTAPREV lies in its governance as a fully embedded municipal entity within a frontier-market region. It lacks the arms-length board structure of larger Brazilian state pension funds and operates without an outsourced discretionary manager, making the mayor's office the ultimate risk and investment authority. This tightly coupled political-financial architecture contrasts with the independent trust models seen in larger OECD public pension systems.

Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at ALTAPREV?
Alan de Figueiredo Uchôa serves as Diretor Presidente, with Nazaré do Socorro Viana de Sousa as Administrative/Financial Director. However, ultimate authority rests with the Deliberative Council and the Prefeito of Altamira, who appoints the board. This places strategic asset-allocation decisions under municipal political oversight rather than an independent investment committee.
How is ALTAPREV governed?
ALTAPREV operates as a Regime Próprio de Previdência Social (RPPS), a class of Brazilian public pension funds governed by federal rules under the Ministry of Social Security. The mayor of Altamira appoints the board, and a Deliberative Council chaired by Justino da Silva Bequiman provides governance oversight. This structure differs from autonomous public pension authorities by keeping hiring and portfolio decisions within the municipal administration's direct purview.
Where does ALTAPREV's capital come from?
The fund's capital derives from mandatory contributions by municipal public servants of Altamira, matched by employer contributions from the municipal government. As an RPPS fund, it is a pay-as-you-go system transitioning toward full actuarial funding, with investment returns intended to supplement contributor inflows to meet long-term pension liabilities.
Does ALTAPREV invest directly or through funds?
Given its estimated scale of $8.6M (Altss estimate), ALTAPREV almost certainly invests through regulated local investment funds rather than executing direct transactions. CMN Resolution 4,963 restricts RPPS allocations mainly to government bonds, financial institution CDs, and shares of regulated equity and infrastructure funds, effectively precluding direct co-investments or international exposure.
What role does the mayor of Altamira play in ALTAPREV?
Prefeito Claudomiro Gomes da Silva holds statutory appointment authority over ALTAPREV's executive leadership and board. This makes the mayor's office the ultimate principal, aligning the fund's investment posture with the municipality's near-term fiscal and liquidity priorities rather than those of an independent fiduciary.
