RJI Gestao & Investimentos

RJI Gestao & Investimentos is a Brazilian asset manager headquartered in Rio de Janeiro with a secondary office in Porto Alegre. The firm distributes its funds through major domestic platforms including Intertrade. Its product shelf reflects a dual structure: liquid market products and direct asset operations. The firm manages the RJI Wegos Valor FIA, an equity fund benchmarked to outperform the Ibovespa over longer horizons with an improved risk-return profile. A second vehicle, RJI Cash FIRF Simples, serves as a cash-management sleeve for clients within the RJI ecosystem. In May 2025, the firm's direct investment arm, via its controlled entity Navegação VJB LTDA, won a public auction to operate waterway ferry services on the Lago de Furnas reservoir in Minas Gerais — a real-asset operating contract that sits alongside its liquid-securities platform. RJI maintains client-service hubs in Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre, supplemented by a WhatsApp contact channel. The firm publishes regular market commentary including a weekly brief and a monthly manager letter, most recently covering April 2026 developments in geopolitics and US-Iran ceasefire negotiations. May 2025: RJI, representing its controlled entity Navegação VJB LTDA, won the auction for the aquaviary transport concession on the Lago de Furnas in Minas Gerais (per the firm, May 2026). The firm's architecture departs from the typical pure-play fund manager. It holds a securities brokerage license alongside its asset-management registration, and it directly controls an operating company that bids on real-infrastructure concessions. That hybrid model — liquid fund management plus hard-asset operating contracts — gives RJI a structural footprint closer to a Brazilian holding company than a standalone 555 fund manager.
