Fee Incentive Program for Structured Transactions with Single Stocks and ETF Options
This policy will remain in effect until June 30, 2026, and it may be changed again or terminated early by B3.
Accreditation
Investors who meet the eligibility criteria outlined in item 1 above and are interested in enrolling in the program must submit a request via email to [email protected]. The request must include an indication of the assets, selected from the list of eligible assets, in which the investor intends to register. Requests will be reviewed within five (5) business days, and the results will be communicated to the investor through the same email address.

Approved investors must provide a dedicated account for the program, which must be used exclusively for this program. It is the investor’s responsibility to ensure that the account is used solely for this purpose. Systemic inability on the part of the investor to comply with this requirement will prevent the investor from participating in the program

- A. ADTV (Average Daily Trading Volume) equals or is greater than BRL 5,000,000.00 (five million BRL) in Single Stock/BDR/ETF Options, considering the three full months prior to the date of the accreditation request. The volume considered includes all accounts linked to the requesting investor ID, excluding volume originating from accounts registered in market maker programs for Single Stock, BDR, or ETF Options.
- B. The vehicle must not be accredited as a Market Maker, either in the cash market and/or in the options market, for the eligible assets in which it intends to operate under the program.

- PETR4;
- VALE3;
- BOVA11;
- ITUB4;
- BBDC4;
- BBAS3.
Definition of the fees
Approved investors will have a 40% (forty percent) discount applied on fees charged on transactions executed in the cash equity market and on options exercise, exclusively for the assets in which the institution is accredited.
This discount will be applied to the fees listed below for all transactions carried out through the account registered for the program:
Cash Market Transactions
- Trading Fee;
- Central Counterparty Fee (CCP)
- Asset Transfer Fee (TTA).
Options Exercises
- Trading Fee;
- Central Counterparty Fee (CCP)
- Asset Transfer Fee (TTA).
It is important to note that the trading volumes executed through the account registered in this Program will not be considered for the calculus of the ADTV (Average Daily Trading Volume) to determine the regular fee for cash equities market products. Likewise, such volumes will not be counted toward the calculation of applicable fees under Incentive Programs, such as the Large Non-Day Trades Program and the HFT Program.
Transactions outside the established parameters
B3 will do a monthly monitoring to verify whether the transactions carried out through the accounts registered in the program are following the parameters defined. If it is found that the volume traded in the cash market exceeds the 10% (ten percent) tolerance margin, the excess volume will be charged the highest fee applicable in the cash market—i.e., the first tier of the non-day trade fee schedule. The charge will be applied by the 10th business day of the following month.
De-accreditation
The investor wishing to withdraw from the program must submit a request via email to [email protected]. The de-accreditation will take place within five (5) business days from the date of the request. Additionally, participants will be automatically de-accredited if, during their participation in this program, they act as a market maker in any of the assets for which they are registered, in order to prevent the accumulation of benefits on the same assets
