I have got my permanent visa by investing as you state. Until you have permanancy you cannot open a bank account. I you form a company, you must have a resident administrator, and you have no control on the bank account.(be aware of this). If you looking to live here then I suggest you visit a number of other areas, less dangerous in terms of crime. If you are UK based I have a London based international Brasilian solicitor who is resonable in price and will carry out due diligence checks, get CPF etc.
