STANFORD INT'L BANK: U.S. Receiver Asks US$20 Million for Expenses
------------------------------------------------------------------
Stanford Financial Group (SFG) court-appointed receiver, Ralph
Janvey, has requested US$20 million from a judge to cover fees and
expenses during two months of work on behalf of investors
allegedly swindled by Stanford International Bank Limited (SIBL)
owner, Robert Allen Stanford, Bloomberg News reports.

The report relates  Mr. Janvey, citing a filing by his lawyers,
hired investigators, attorneys and forensic accountants from
14 firms to track assets scattered worldwide.

Mr. Janvey previously told Bloomberg News the alleged fraud is
“far more complicated” than New York financier Bernard Madoff’s
admitted US$65 billion Ponzi scheme.  “Madoff made up bogus
brokerage accounts and lied about his investment strategy,” the
report quoted Mr. Janvey as saying in an April 23 interview.  “He
didn’t have a worldwide empire with over 100 companies, numerous
different businesses, customers and operations in 15 companies,
and more than 3,000 employees, like Stanford did.”

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), on Feb. 17, charged
Mr. Stanford and three of his companies for orchestrating a
fraudulent, multi-billion dollar investment scheme centering on an
US$8 billion Certificate of Deposit program.  Mr. Stanford's
companies include SIBL, Stanford Group Company (SGC), and
investment adviser Stanford Capital Management.  According to a
TCR-LA  April 8 report, citing Bloomberg News, U.S. District Judge
David Godbey seized all of Mr. Stanford’s corporate and personal
assets and placed them under the control of court-appointed SGC
receiver Ralph Janvey.

BNDES: Increases Lending in 12 Months, Dow Jones Says
-----------------------------------------------------
Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Economico e Social SA (BNDES)
has drastically increased its lending over the last 12 months as
commercial banks shy away from borrowers, Kenneth Rapoza of Dow
Jones Newswires reports.  The report says BNDES' lending over the
past 12 months increased 22% to BRL92.8 billion (US$43.98 billion)
from the same period a year ago.

According to the report, so far this year, lending has increased
2% to BRL26.6 billion.  The report notes many of Brazil's biggest
industrial companies have come to rely on the low-cost long-term
lending programs provided by BNDES.

BNDES budget manager Gabriel Visconti expects the bank to lend
more in 2009 than it did in 2008, the report relates.

                           About BNDES

Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Economico e Social SA is
Brazil's national development bank.  It provides financing for
projects within Brazil and plays a major role in the
privatization programs undertaken by the federal government.

                          *     *     *

As of May 18, 2009, Banco Nacional continues to carry a Ba2
foreign long-term bank deposit rating from Moody's Investors
Service.  The rating was assigned in August 2007.


BRASKEM SA: To Halt Caprolactam Production, Suspend Unit's Ops.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Braskem S.A. said it will suspend the production of caprolactam
and temporarily deactivate the product’s industrial unit located
at the Camaçari Complex in Bahia.  The company said the decision
took into account a detailed assessment of the business,
considering the difficulties the Brazilian market for caprolactam
has been undergoing in recent years, as well as the impact of the
international crisis.

Most caprolactam produced by Braskem was destined for the
international market, which has lost liquidity since mid-2008 as a
result of the global economic crisis and the credit shortage.  The
company had to drastically reduce the use of plant capacity, which
reduced profit margins and momentarily made it unfeasible to
continue with the operation.  Since these assets can be
reactivated in the future, this deactivation will not entail any
accounting impact, the company said.

The company said it will continue supplying its domestic market
caprolactam clients until the end of 2009, with current stocks.
After that date, it can resort directly to international
suppliers, an alternative currently being used by some Brazilian
companies.

Besides honoring all its commitments with clients, Braskem also
adopted all measures to minimize domestic impacts from this
decision.  Of the 106 employees involved in this business, 38 were
reabsorbed by other units, 34 are in the process of retirement, 19
remain employed at the cyclohexane unit and 18 may be dismissed.
Braskem is still analyzing opportunities to use these employees at
other of its own or partner units.

Braskem will accompany the evolution of caprolactam market
conditions to determine the eventual resumption of operations at
its industrial unit.

                        About Braskem S.A.

Braskem S.A. -- http://www.braskem.com.br/-- is a thermoplastic
resins producer in Latin America, and is among the three largest
Brazilian-owned private industrial companies.  The company

consolidated net revenues of about US$9 billion in the trailing

JBS SA: Incurs US$154 Million Net Loss in First Quarter
-------------------------------------------------------
JBS SA's loss widened to BRL322.7 million (US$154 million) from a
loss of BRL6.6 million in the first quarter of 2008, Rogerio
Jelmayer of Dow Jones Newswires reports, citing a company
statement.  The report says the company incurred a BRL446.6
million loss due to financial expenses as well as losses in the
Argentina operations.

"The financial expenses of the first quarter is composed of debt
servicing and export contracts from the second half of 2008 that
resulted in goods returned, cancelled contracts and delays which
affected hedging positions and cattle purchase related to these
contracts," the company said in a statement obtained by the news
agency.

The report relates JBS' first-quarter net revenue rose to BRL9.26
billion from BRL5.8 billion in the year-ago period, while EBITDA

BERNARD L. MADOFF: Trustee Asks Court to Halt Movement of Funds
---------------------------------------------------------------
Bernard L Madoff Investment Securities LLC trustee Irving
Picard -- appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act
to liquidate the company -– asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New
York for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction
to stop two Kingate funds and the Bank of Bermuda from
transferring money, Reuters reports.  The report relates that in
court documents, Mr. Picard said Kingate Global Fund Ltd. and
Kingate Euro Fund Ltd. were actively seeking to unfreeze their
accounts through the Bermuda Supreme Court.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
April 23, 2009, Bloomberg News said Mr. Picard sued Kingate
Management Limited for the return of US$255 million transferred to
the firm's British Virgin Islands-registered funds in the months
before Madoff's collapse.  The same report related Mr. Picard
filed a complaint in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York stating
that transfers of US$100 million to Kingate Global Fund Ltd. and
US$155 million to Kingate Euro Fund Ltd. from Madoff firm accounts
in October and November were improper.  Bloomberg News noted that
according to the complaint, Kingate Global invested US$963.5
million with Madoff from March 1994 to December 11, while Kingate
Euro invested US$767.4 million with Madoff beginning in January
1996, through 155 wire transfers to an account at JPMorgan Chase &
Co. in New York.

Mr. Picard, as cited by Reuters, said that if Kingate is succesful
in court, it believes it will make the recovery of the funds
impossible.  The court documents, the report relates, said that
US$100 million of the Madoff payments are in the Bank of Bermuda
account.

                     About Bernard L. Madoff

Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC was a market maker in
U.S. stocks, including all of the S&P 500 and more than 350 Nasdaq
stocks.  The firm moved large blocks of stock for institutional
clients by splitting up orders or arranging off-exchange
transactions between parties.  It also performed clearing and
settlement services.  Clients included brokerages, banks, and
other financial institutions.  In addition, Madoff Securities
managed assets for high-net-worth individuals, hedge funds, and
other institutional investors.

The firm is being liquidated in the aftermath of a fraud scandal
involving founder Bernard L. Madoff.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Dec. 15, 2008, the
Securities and Exchange Commission charged Mr. Madoff and his
investment firm with securities fraud for a multi-billion dollar
Ponzi scheme that he perpetrated on advisory clients of his firm.
The estimated losses from Madoff's fraud were allegedly at least
50 billion.

Also on Dec. 15, 2008, the Honorable Louis A. Stanton of the U.S.
istrict Court for the Southern District of New York granted the
application of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation for
a decree adjudicating that the customers of BLMIS are in need of
the protection afforded by the Securities Investor Protection Act
of 1970.  Irving H. Picard, Esq., was appointed as trustee for the
liquidation of BLMIS, and Baker & Hostetler LLP was appointed as
counsel.

Mr. Madoff, if found guilty of all counts, would be imprisoned for
150 years, but legal experts expect the actual sentence to be much
lower and would still be an effective life sentence for the 70-
year-old defendant, WSJ notes.  Mr. Madoff, WSJ relates, would
also face millions of dollars in possible criminal fines.  The
report says that Mr. Madoff has been free on bail since his arrest
on December 11, 2008.  There was no plea agreement with Mr. Madoff
in which leniency in sentencing might be recommended, the report
states, citing prosecutors.

Cana) $250 million senior secured notes due 2013 (the 2013s) from
'CCC/RR4' to 'D' and subsequently withdrawn the rating.  The
action follows the completion of a successful debt exchange on May
8, 2009 that effectively retired the 2013s.  The terms of the debt
exchange are considered a default on the 2013s per Fitch's
'Coercive Debt Exchange Criteria', published on March 3, 2009
Approximately 96% of Noteholders voted for the exchange.  As part
of the exchange, Cap Cana issued two series of new notes due in
2016.  The above rating is not applicable to the Cap Cana S.A. new
notes due 2016, which have not been rated to date.

Cap Cana is a 30,000-acre luxury, second-home real estate project
under development and is located on the easternmost tip of the
Dominican Republic.  The company experienced financial troubles in
2008 as a result of the global economic downturn which severely
affected access to capital as well as the project's sales
environment, and as a result had to restructure its debts.

ALPART: Officially Suspended Operations on May 15
-------------------------------------------------
Alumina Partners of Jamaica (Alpart)'s mining and refinery
operations officially came to a halt on May 15, RadioJamaica
reports.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
Mar. 20, 2009, Radio Jamaica News said Alpart will suspend its
operations for one year by May 15, sending home 900 permanent
employees in the process; amid a 60% decline in alumina product
prices since July 2008.  Alpart Managing Director Alberto Fabrini,
as cited by Radio Jamaica News, said the temporary shutdown will
allow the plant to prepare for future developments.  Although the
company took steps to maintain the operations even at reduced
capacity, circumstances still left the company with no other
choice but to shutdown, he added.  Mr. Fabrini, Radio Jamaica
noted, said the company will continue to meet its obligations to
employees and the surrounding communities in a timely manner.

ALPART Public Relations Manager Lance Neita, as cited by
RadioJamaica, said a skeletal staff will remain at the plant
although most of the workers' positions were made redundant on a
phased basis starting the end of March.

“I want to emphasize that this is a temporary closure, a temporary
situation," Caribbean Net News quoted Mr. Neita as saying.  "We
will have a team of employees there until the end of May until
they are replaced by another team to carry on the maintenance work
during the temporary closure."

JETBLUE AIRWAYS: To Service Saint Lucia Route
---------------------------------------------
JetBlue Airways plans to further develop its growing international
route network this fall with new service to the Caribbean island
of Saint Lucia, subject to receipt of government operating
authority.   The airline intends to serve Saint Lucia's Hewanorra
International Airport with flights to/from its home at New York's
John F. Kennedy International Airport.  From JFK, JetBlue plans to
offer onward connections to/from other U.S. cities.

Saint Lucia, located in the eastern Caribbean, is one of 13
international locations on JetBlue's expanding route map, and one
of the more than 50 destinations throughout North, South, and
Central America with JetBlue service.  In addition to its new
Saint Lucia flights, JetBlue will also begin new service to
Montego Bay, Jamaica on May 21 and to Bridgetown, Barbados on
October 1 (also subject to receipt of government operating
authority).

"We're pleased to be growing in the Caribbean region yet again
with new flights between New York and Saint Lucia," said Scott
Laurence, JetBlue's vice president of network planning.  "JetBlue
is proud to bring to the eastern Caribbean what we believe is the
best airline product in the Americas.  We look forward to
introducing Saint Lucians to a refreshing kind of air travel
experience, with low fares, new aircraft, delicious (and free)
snacks and drinks, complimentary seatback television programming
and some of the friendliest crewmembers in the skies."

Senator Allen Chastanet, Minister of Tourism and Civil Aviation
for the Government of Saint Lucia said he was very excited at the
introduction of new JetBlue service to Saint Lucia from the
largest market in the United States: "JetBlue is rapidly becoming
a major player in the U.S. airline industry and has great plans
for the Caribbean.  We are happy to be one of the first
destinations in the eastern Caribbean to be served by JetBlue.  We
do not see JetBlue as competition to existing US carriers but as
opening up a brand new market for Saint Lucia."

JetBlue intends to operate its Saint Lucia service with spacious
150-seat Airbus A320 aircraft.

SCJ: Assets to be Sold Off to "Priority Four Investors"
-------------------------------------------------------
State-owned Sugar Company of Jamaica ("SCJ")'s  five state-owned
sugar factories are now expected to be sold off to what has been
described as a "priority four investors", Mark Titus of The
Gleaner reports.  The report recalls sources said the government
failed to offload the company as a single entity.

According to the report, the shortlisted four are:

   *  a conglomerate -- Hussey family and American
      partners -- who is going after the Long Pond and Hampden
      Estates in Trelawny;

   *  U.S.-based Energen Corporation for the Petrojam Ethanol
      facility and Bernard Lodge, Innswood, Monymusk estates in
      Clarendon;

   *  Italians Eridania Sadam, who is eyeing the Frome estate in
      Westmoreland; and

   *  Fred M. Jones, in partnership with Seprod Limited, has set
      his sights on the Duckenfield estate in St Thomas.

The Gleaner notes sources said the other proposals were thrown out
because they had unreasonable demands.

Meanwhile, the report says a legal sticking point still remains
over the sale of Hampden.  The Gleaner relates as ex parte
injunction that expires today, May 19, prevents the government and
its agents - including the SCJ, receiver John Lee and the Trelawny
Sugar Company of Jamaica - from selling or transferring those
assets.  The Gleaner recalls Hampden went into receivership in
1999 after it was taken over by state-owned bailout company,
Finsac, under the rescue of the financial sector.


* JAMAICA: JP Morgan Upgrades External Debt Rating to “Neutral”
---------------------------------------------------------------
U. S. financial company JP Morgan upgraded Jamaica's external debt
to neutral from underweight after news said the country might
resume borrowing relations with the International Monetary Fund
(IMF), RadioJamaica reports.  The report relates JP Morgan
believes Jamaica could sign a stand-by arrangement with the IMF
following recent discussions with the Fund and Government
officials.

According to the report, JP Morgan also said tourist arrivals were
up 2% during the winter season, and foreign exchange reserves rose
for a second consecutive month after dropping 30% since August.

The report notes JP Morgan also pointed that the Jamaican dollar
is stabilizing to around JM$89 to one US after dropping 23%
between October and March.  In addition, the report says JP Morgan
said Jamaican bonds are attractive for less risk-averse investors.

                          *     *     *

According to Moody's Web site, the country continues to hold
a B1 foreign currency rating and a Ba2 local currency rating.

CL FIN'L: CLICO Receives TT$1Bln Government Bail Out Fund to Date
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Lawrence Cyril Duprey-founded insurance company, Colonial Life
Insurance Company Insurance (Trinidad) Ltd (CLICO), a unit of CL
Financial Limited, has so far received TT$1 billion bail-out funds
from the Trinidad and Tobago government, Oscar Ramjeet of
Caribbean Net News reports, citing CLICO Chairman Euric Bobb.

"We have received since early February about TT$1 billion in
advances from the Central Bank to help us to meet our commitments
of maturing products," Mr. Bobb said in an interview with the
Trinidad Guardian, the report relates.  “The discussion we are
having in terms of the total package is that ultimately, we expect
total support to be in the order of about TT$5 billion, including
the TT$1 billion that has already been advanced," he added.

According to  Caribbean Net News, when asked by the Guardian if
the money paid to CLICO was a loan or a gift, Mr. Bobb replied,
"You don't get gifts from the State if you are a private company.
What we are doing here is no different from what any of your
viewers read in the press, the rescue operations taking place
throughout the world, in the US, the UK, Ireland, Iceland, in
Belgium, France, Holland where important financial institutions
that have run into difficulty, governments have been stepping in
and providing support, but this is not a gift by any means."

Caribbean Net News notes Mr. Bobb said CLICO anticipated that
government funding would come in the form of ordinary equity in
order to dilute the existing shareholders and include preferential
shares, which would give government the first claim on any profit
CLICO makes going forward.

                        About CL Financial

According to Wikipedia, CL Financial Limited is the largest
privately held conglomerate in Trinidad and Tobago and one of the
largest privately held corporations in the entire Caribbean.
Founded as an insurance company, Colonial Life Insurance Company
(CLICO) by Cyril Duprey, it was expanded into a diversified
company by his nephew, Lawrence Duprey.  CL Financial is now one
of the largest local conglomerates in the region, encompassing
over 65 companies in 32 countries worldwide with total assets
standing at roughly US$100 billion.

                           *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
Feb. 20, 2009, the Trinidad and Tobago Express said Central Bank
Governor Ewart Williams disclosed that an examination of insurance
company CLICO, dissolved finance house CLICO Investment Bank and
other CL Financial companies, showed a deficit between $6 billion
and $8 billion.

Tobago President George Maxwell Richards, The Express related,
signed bailout bills for CL Financial, giving the government the
authority to control the company's unit, Colonial Life Insurance
Company, and giving the central bank extensive powers to treat
with CL Financial's collapse and the consequent systemic crisis.

According to the Trinidad and Tobago Newsday, the government used
$1 billion of taxpayers money to help protect depositors and
policyholders.

T&T Newsday related Governor Williams pleaded with policy holders
not to withdraw money from Clico, amid the unit's increasing
$10 billion debt.

BANCO INDUSTRIAL: Venezuela Puts Bank Into Receivership
-------------------------------------------------------
Venezuela has placed state-owned Banco Industrial in receivership
due to problems "of certain severity," Enrique Andres Pretel of
Reuters reports, citing Finance Minister Ali Rodriguez.  The
report relates the government move pushes the existing
administration aside and puts government in charge of the daily
operations of the country's principal state-owned bank, which has
been repeatedly recapitalized in recent years due to balance sheet
problems.

According to the report, Mr. Rodriguez said Banco Industrial would
continue operating normally during the transition.  "A
receivership board has been designated that will carry out an
exhaustive study of the bank's situation," he said in a televised
address, the report notes.


* VENEZUELA: Eyes Oil Sector Firms, Not Banks, Pres. Chavez Says
----------------------------------------------------------------
Venezuela has its eye on more oil-sector companies to nationalize,
but not on more banks for the moment, Kevin Gray of Reuters
reports, citing President Hugo Chavez.  The report says Mr. Chavez
affirmed that his administration still plans take over more firms
after seizing oil service companies two weeks ago.

As reported in the Troubled Companny Reporter-Latin America on
May 7, 2009, Bloomberg News said PDVSA will take over some oil
field services being carried out by private companies after
lawmakers approved a bill to increase government control.  The
National Assembly gave preliminary approval to allow the
government to take over activities including water injection into
oil wells, compressing natural gas and management of docks and
boats in Lake Maracaibo, Energy and Mines Commission Head Angel
Rodriguez said in an e-mailed statement obtained by Bloomberg
News.  The same report said Venezuela has called on services
companies to lower fees by as much as 40% this year as PDVSA faces
increased debt after oil prices plunged.  Bloomberg News noted the
list of services companies that have suspended work in Venezuela
because of overdue bills is growing.

Meanwhile, Mr.Chavez, as cited by Reuters, said for the time
being, his government was not aiming to buy more banks.  "Are we
planning to nationalize other banks?  Not at the moment," Reuters
quoted Mr. Chavez as saying.

                          *     *     *

According to Moody's Investors Service, Venezuela continues to
carry a B2 foreign currency rating and a B1 local currency rating
with stable outlook.

Monday's edition of the TCR-LA delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-LA editors from a variety of outside
sources during the prior week we think are reliable.   Those
sources may not, however, be complete or accurate.  The Monday
Bond Pricing table is compiled on the Friday prior to
publication.  Prices reported are not intended to reflect actual
trades.  Prices for actual trades are probably different.  Our
objective is to share information, not make markets in publicly
traded securities.  Nothing in the TCR-LA constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind.  It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-LA editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-LA features a list of companies
with insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on
the latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication.  At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Thursday's edition of the TCR-LA. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com
