What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

XP Investimentos, a São Paulo brokerage, announced the suspension of new purchases and transfers into six exchange-traded bond funds. The pause is due to an unsettled tax question from the Federal Revenue Service regarding whether investors must pay 15% or 25% income tax on gains. Nubank's fund, NLFA11, is one of the six ETFs affected by the suspension.
