Brazil's Petrobras is seeking to review Braskem's shareholders agreement with the aim of securing more power to appoint board members and directors. Three sources close to the state-run oil firm confirmed this intention.

This move indicates Petrobras's desire to exert greater influence over the petrochemical firm's strategic decisions and operational management. Braskem is a significant asset in Petrobras's portfolio.

Increased control over Braskem's governance could allow Petrobras to better align the petrochemical company's strategies with its own long-term objectives. This could impact future investments, operational synergies, and overall value creation from the asset.
