I have BB’s cautions/shares certificates. How do I know their value and how to convert them into registered book-entry shares?

If they are NOMINATIVE (preferential or voting) shares, they have already been converted and the certificates have no more value.

If they are BEARER shares, the owner must attend a BB’s branch, with personal documents (ID, CPF, proof of residence and recent income – according to CVM Instruction 301 dated April 16, 1999) and the original caution for convert them into the nominative type. After the conversion process, which lasts an average of 60 days, the shareholder can verify its balance. It is the right of the shareholder to receive the last 3 years of remuneration that will be at the disposal of the shareholder to collect them.
