.............................. Caixa Econemica Federal Bank of Brasil
Logo and Trademark..............................
Caixa Econômica Federal, also referred to as CAIXA, is a Brazilian bank, one of the largest government-owned financial institutions in Latin America. The bank was founded in January 12, 1861 as Caixa Econômica e Monte de Socorro in Rio de Janeiro as a financial institution destined to collect national savings, mostly from the poor. Over the years, several similar institutions were created until most of them were merged into present-day "Caixa" in 1967.
The 1970s were particularly flourishing to the bank, mostly due to its near-monopoly of popular savings, the management of Brazilian state lotteries and being the only lawful pawn broker in Brazil. In the 1990s, however, the scenario has changed and the bank underwent a serious downsizing, when thousands of employees lost their jobs.
Part of the problem was caused by the modernisation of the Brazilian banking system in the 1980s, with many other banks introducing savings accounts to their portfolios, Brazilian states being granted rights to explore lotteries as well as the federal government, a series of corruption scandals regarding lottery fraud (usually against Loteria Esportiva) and the opening of the market for foreign banks. The control of inflation also hampered Caixa's financial performance by making savings accounts less attractive.
Nowadays, Caixa is the second biggest Brazilian bank (second only to Banco do Brasil) and is present in thousands of Brazilian towns (ranked the third financial institution in Brazil in number of branches). Caixa has more than 32 million accounts, with liabilities worth more than R$ 148 billion in savings or investment. Together with government pension funds and other governmental resources, Caixa controls more than R$ 386 billion (roughly about US$ 170bn). Caixa is a tool for public investment and social inclusion.
Caixa is still the manager of most Brazilian lotteries, especially the most popular ones, such as Mega-Sena, Quina and Loteca. The profits of Brazilian state lotteries are reverted to amateur sport promotion and elementary education.
