CTEEP - Companhia de Transmissão de Energia Elétrica Paulista S.A. (BOVESPA:TRPL4) is looking for acquisitions. Rui Chammas, Chief Executive Officer said, "Well, we also assess prospects or possibilities of acquisition of operational assets. What we consider are different risk profiles that -- and they also have different profitability profiles.

So if the environment is more favorable for acquisitions, it depends on a lot. So on one hand, we have a macroeconomic environment, raising capital cost, both our own and third parties. At the same time, we can have more opportunities for improvement and players with appetite and capacity for contracts, and this might be different than it was a few years ago.

So there are many aspects to be factored in, and we are always monitoring opportunities, and we try to take informed decisions in terms of return and risk according to the profile of the projects. So we consider the 3 possibilities that we have for growth, reinforcement and improvements, auctions and M&A, each one with their own features and to diversify our portfolio".
