STANFORD INT'L: Liquidators Dispute Predecessor's US$18MM Fee
-------------------------------------------------------------
Kit Chellel at Bloomberg News reports that according to Grant
Thornton LLP said Vantis Plc, the firm originally appointed to
wind up Robert Allen Stanford's bank, charged US$18 million in
fees while recovering around US$300,000 for victims of the fraud.
Grant Thornton is Stanford International Bank Limited's new
liquidator. Vantis was removed as Antiguan liquidator of
Stanford in May, but recovered around US$300,000 of assets before
being replaced, Bloomberg relates.
Grant Thornton partner Hugh Dickson said his firm is challenging
to have the Vantis bill reduced in an Antigua court, according to
Bloomberg.
"We are in dialogue with Grant Thornton regarding the costs
incurred prior to them taking office . . . . Our main objective
is to find a sensible solution, which does not result in lengthy
court time and further delays," Bloomberg quoted FRP partner
Nigel Hamilton Smith as saying.
Bloomberg notes that Grant Thornton said it has identified up to
US$1.5 billion that it wants to return to more than 20,000
Stanford victims and creditors it represents. That figure
includes property valued at US$300 million, securities worth
US$250 million, and potential returns of as much as US$1 billion
from lawsuits, the report relays.
Bloomberg discloses that efforts in the U.S. and Antigua to
unwind Mr. Stanford's alleged US$7 billion Ponzi scheme have
produced little to return to victims and creditors.
About Stanford International Bank
Domiciled in Antigua, Stanford International Bank Limited --
http://www.stanfordinternationalbank.com/-- is a member of
Stanford Private Wealth Management, a global financial services
network with US$51 billion in deposits and assets under
management or advisement. Stanford Private Wealth Management
serves more than 70,000 clients in 140 countries.
On Feb. 16, 2009, the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of Texas, Dallas Division, signed an order appointing
Ralph Janvey as receiver for all the assets and records of
Stanford International Bank, Ltd., Stanford Group Company,
Stanford Capital Management, LLC, Robert Allen Stanford, James M.
Davis and Laura Pendergest-Holt and of all entities they own or
control. The February 16 order, as amended March 12, 2009,
directs the Receiver to, among other things, take control and
possession of and to operate the Receivership Estate, and to
perform all acts necessary to conserve, hold, manage and preserve
the value of the Receivership Estate.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Feb. 17, 2009,
charged before the U.S. District Court in Dallas, Texas, Mr.
Stanford and three of his companies for orchestrating a
fraudulent, multi-billion dollar investment scheme centering on a
US$8 billion Certificate of Deposit program.
A criminal case was also pursued against Mr. Stanford in June
2009 before the U.S. District Court in Houston, Texas. Mr.
Stanford pleaded not guilty to 21 charges of multi-billion dollar
fraud, money-laundering and obstruction of justice. Assistant
Attorney General Lanny Breuer, as cited by Agence France-Presse
News, said in a 57-page indictment that Mr. Stanford could face
up to 250 years in prison if convicted on all charges. Mr.
Stanford surrendered to U.S. authorities after a warrant was
issued for his arrest on the criminal charges.
The criminal case is U.S. v. Stanford, H-09-342 (S.D. Tex.). The
civil case is SEC v. Stanford International Bank, 09-cv-00298
(N.D. Tex.).

LUPATECH SA: S&P Affirms 'B-' Global Scale Corp. Credit Rating
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its outlooks on
Brazil-based industrial and oil and gas valve manufacturer
Lupatech S.A.
"At the same time, we affirmed our ratings, including the 'B-'
global scale and 'brBB' Brazilian national scale corporate credit
ratings, on the company," S&P stated.
"The negative outlooks reflect Lupatech's weak liquidity and high
refinancing risk," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Paula
Martins. "Despite initiatives announced to improve its capital
structure, the company faces significant challenges to improve
its profitability and strengthen its weak liquidity."
The ratings on Lupatech reflect the company's weak business
profile and highly leveraged financial profile.
Relevant risks include weak liquidity; very high debt stemming
from its historically aggressive, acquisition-based growth
strategy; and a high, dollar-denominated interest burden that
exposes the company to currency mismatches.
Partially mitigating these risks are the company's leading
position in valves in Brazil, the long-term profile of the
majority of its debt, and the strong growth prospects that supply
contracts to Brazilian national oil company Petroleo Brasileiro
S.A. Petrobras support.

JAMALCO: Jamaica Cabinet Approves Sale of Interest in CAP
---------------------------------------------------------
RJR News reports that the Jamaican cabinet has approved the sale
of the government's interest in Clarendon Alumina Partners,
further paving the way to finalize its ongoing negotiations with
the International Monetary Fund on the targets contained in the
Stand-by Agreement.
Daryl Vaz, the Minister with responsibility for Information,
Telecommunications and Special Projects, emphasized that the sale
of the government's shares in CAP is "critical" to the conclusion
of the IMF negotiations but he said "Jamaica's economy grew by
2.1% in the second quarter . . . . above the projection of 1.5%
per cent," Mr. Vaz told journalist at post cabinet press
briefing, according to RJR News.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
Sept. 9, 2011, RJR News said that unnamed sources said the
Jamaican government has received at least two offers for its
stake in JAMALCO's alumina refinery. Switzerland-based
commodities trader, Glencore and Chinese metals trader, Zhuhai
Hongfan, are rumored to be the potential bidders for the
government's stake, according to RJR News. The report noted that
the government owns 45% of JAMALCO through the Clarendon Alumina
Partners, and has been trying, since last year, to offload that
stake, because of its hefty cost associated with a forward sale
agreement. RJR News related that Jamaica Prime Minister Bruce
Golding said that the forward sale agreement had cost taxpayers
more than JM$12 billion since 2002. The report relayed that
Prime Minister Golding said that if the government's stake was
not divested, taxpayers would be asked to pay a further
JM$15 billion before the contract ends in 2013.
About JAMALCO
JAMALCO (Alcoa Minerals of Jamaica) is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Alcoa. JAMALCO mines bauxite and refines it into alumina
before exporting the alumina from its port at Rocky Point,
Clarendon.
* * *
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
April 13, 2009, Radio Jamaica News said Alcoa plans to cut
13,500 jobs or 13% of the work force in Jamaica, because of the
global slowdown. Alcoa is also selling four business units and
reducing output to save money, the report noted. Caribbean Net
News said the government is holding talks with potential
purchasers for its 45% stake in the Jamalco refinery in south-
central parish of Clarendon. Aluminum giant Alcoa holds 55% of
the company, which has a production capacity of 1.4 million tons
of alumina.

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
