Fernando Fegyveres is the new partner at Rivool Finance, a fintech company specializing in credit solutions for agribusiness. Fernando previously held the roles of Director of Marketing, Product Development, and Growth at Cerc. He also served as CEO of Banco Voiter and was an executive at Itaú BBA for over 20 years. Rivool Finance is focused on the internationalization of Brazilian agricultural credit through tokenization.
