Heritage

In 1867, Mauá performed a survey of all his assets (spread over several enterprises) and reached the total figure of 115,000 contos de réis. This value was higher than the budget of the (Brazilian) Empire that year, which reached 97 thousand contos. Converted to sterling pounds, the patrimony amounted to 12 million pounds, which was comparable to the total assets of the Bank of England, 43 million pounds. And in dollar terms, the patrimony amounted to USD 60 million, comparable to the legacy left by Cornelius Vanderbilt, USD 100 million. It is estimated that, today, his fortune would be in the order of USD60 billion.

Brief Biography

With the extinction of the slave trade, from the Eusebio de Queiroz Law (1850), the capital hitherto employed in the slave trade came to be invested in industrialization. Taking this opportunity, Maua began to be divided between industrial and banking activities, having accumulated a fortune at forty years of age.

Among the investments made, besides the casting and shipyard at the Ponta da Areia, the most important were:

· the design of gas lighting in the city of Rio de Janeiro, [2] which exploitation concession was obtained for twenty years. By contract, the businessman pledged to replace 21 miles of whale oil lamps for new ones, of his manufacturing, erecting a gas plant in the city limits. Investors only began to endorse the shares of the Gas Lighting Company when the first lamps, in the center of the city, were lit, surprising the population (March 25, 1854). Later, pressed by financial difficulties, Maua ceded his rights of exploitation to a British capital company, for 1.2 million sterling pounds and shares worth 3,600 contos de réis.

· the organization of the Amazon Navigation Company (1852), [2] with steam boats manufactured on the Ponta da Areia shipyard. Later, in 1866, the Empire granted the freedom of navigation of the Amazon River to all nations, leading Maua to give up the project, transferring his interests to a British capital company.

· the establishment of a tramway company pulled by donkeys in the city of Rio de Janeiro, whose contract for exploration Maua acquired in 1862, but whose rights, due to cash needs, were ceded to  an American capital company, the Botanical Garden's Railroad (1866 ), which inaugurated the first tramway line in 1868, organizing a lucrative transport network.

· participation, as a shareholder, in the enterprise of Recife & San Francisco Railway Company, [7] the second of Brazil, in partnership with British capitalists and farmers from São Paulo, designed to transport the region sugar crop.

· participation, as a shareholder, in the Dom Pedro II Railroad (later Central of Brazil Railroad), even being aware that, due its route, this road would take all the competitiveness of the Rio-Petrópolis, [6]

· participation, as an entrepreneur, in the Sao Paulo Railway (later  Santos-Jundiaí railway), venture funded entirely by him, being this railroad the fifth in the country, in February 16, 1867 [6].

· the settlement of the submarine cable,  in 1874 [2].

In 1852, the now viscount founded the Maua, MacGregor & Cia Bank, [6] with branchs in several Brazilian capitals and in London, [7] Paris and New York. In Uruguay, founded in 1857 the Banco Maua Y Cia, the first banking institution in that country, including authorization to issue paper currency, considering that this bank opened a branch in Buenos Aires, cited by Jules Verne as one of the major banks in South America [6]
