December 11, 2018Brazilian Court Blocked Embraer-Boeing Aviation Deal
A Brazilian federal court on Thursday granted an injunction blocking the proposed tie-up between U.S. plane maker Boeing Co and Embraer SA, a deal the Brazilian company says is crucial to its survival.
The decision forbids Embraer’s board of directors from signing the deal to create a joint venture on commercial aviation that Boeing would control.
The legal action was brought by four congressmen with Brazil’s left-wing Workers Party.
In July, the companies inked an agreement in which Boeing would acquire 80% of Embraer’s commercial aviation business.
Boeing and Embraer have also interest in broadening their partnership on the Brazilian firm’s KC-390 cargo plane.
