Explanation:

redemption of investment

“Baixa de investimento” in a balance sheet would definitely be “investment write-off”. But I thought that since this is a checking account statement perhaps “write-off” does not apply here. This could just mean that an investment was redeemed.
Please see the terms below that I gleaned from this glossary: www.multiconnection.com.br/Documentos/dicionario.doc

baixa (contab) write off; reversal; disposal
baixa repentina de preços slump
baixar (portaria, etc) to enact; to publish; to issue; introduce
baixar (contab) write-off, sell, dispose of,
baixar (do estoque, tirar de circulação) retiral
baixas de imobilizado para desativações write down of fixed assets on discontinued operations


Hope this helps!
