EDENOR SA: Board Approves Merger with Emdersa Holding
-----------------------------------------------------
Edenor S.A.'s Board of Directors held a meeting and resolved to
approve basic and consolidated merger special balance sheets of
Edenor S.A., in connection with the merger of Emdersa Holding
S.A., as merged company, and Edenor S.A., as merging and surviving
company, and further resolved to approve the relevant Merger
Prospectus and Plan of Merger, ad referendum of their approval by
the Shareholders' Meeting.

Furthermore, it resolved to call a General Extraordinary
Shareholders' Meeting to be held on Dec. 20, 2013, at 11:30 a.m.,
at Ortiz de Ocampo 3302, Ground Floor, Building 4, City of Buenos
Aires (not at the Company's corporate office), to consider the
items of the agenda to be formally and timely submitted to the
above-referenced Commission and Stock Exchange.

                          About Edenor SA

Headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Edenor S.A. (NYSE: EDN;
Buenos Aires Stock Exchange: EDN) is the largest electricity
distribution company in Argentina in terms of number of customers
and electricity sold (both in GWh and Pesos).  Through a
concession, Edenor distributes electricity exclusively to the
northwestern zone of the greater Buenos Aires metropolitan area
and the northern part of the city of Buenos Aires.

Edenor S.A. disclosed a loss of ARS1.01 billion on ARS3.72 billion
of revenue from sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as
compared with a net loss of ARS291.38 million on ARS2.80 billion
of revenue from sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed ARS 7.72
billion in total assets, ARS 6.50 billion in total liabilities and
ARS 1.21 billion in total equity.


PROVINCE OF SALTA: Fitch Affirms B- Long-term Currency Ratings
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Province of Salta's (PS) ratings as
follows:

-- Long Term Foreign Currency Rating at 'B-', Outlook Negative
-- Long Term Local Currency Rating at 'B-'. Outlook Negative
-- Secured notes Long Term Rating at 'B-'

Key Rating Drivers:

In line with Fitch's methodologies and criteria, PS's ratings are
capped by Argentina's Country Ceiling, which was last affirmed
together with the sovereign ratings on 22 November 2013 at 'B-'
with Negative Outlook.

The ratings reflect the province's increasing operating
expenditure and weak socio-economic profile that are balanced by
its ability to manage operating spending pressure and manageable
debt. The province is increasing both provincial staff and
provision of social services which are highly exposed to inflation
pressure. However, the province has managed to post adequate
operating margins and has political room to apply austerity
measures during financial stress. In addition, it is able to fund
public investment without incurring significant new borrowings.

Due to inflation pressure and stricter control on tax collection,
PS's current revenues increased to ARP9.5bn in 2012 from ARP1.6bn
in 2005, outpacing provincial economic growth. Similar to other
Argentinean sub-nationals, PS?s revenue structure is pro-cyclical
and dependent on federal transfers despite having tax-setting
power and collecting hydrocarbon royalties. Federal current
transfers received in 2012 accounted for 70.1% of PS's current
revenues and since 2005 this ratio has never been below 60%,
compared with the national median of 50.7%.

Due to the inflation effect on salaries and the higher provision
of social services, PS's expenditure structure has become more
rigid and concentrated on operating spending: mainly on personnel
costs and current transfers made to municipalities. Staff costs
jumped to ARP5.3bn in 2012 from ARP1.6bn in 2008, absorbing 55.8%
of current revenues in 2012 compared with 44.1% in 2008. Despite
the increasing operating costs PS managed to keep its operating
margin, notwithstanding a decline in 2012, at adequate levels,
reflecting fiscal discipline and an ability to manage salary
demands.

As expected by Fitch, in 2012 the amount of debt of the province
increased which, coupled with the decline in the operating margin,
increased debt and sustainability indicators. However, they remain
well below the provincial average and are consistent with its
current ratings. Further, most of its debt is in local currency
and at fixed interest rates, and 40.3% of its debt is with the
federal government, which Fitch considers as a friendly creditor.
Moreover, according to the projections provided by the PS, a
recovery of financial performance by end-2013 should improve its
debt metrics.

Due to the high inflationary environment in Argentina, it is
difficult for Fitch to make projections of the province's
operating revenues and expenses, and to accurately estimate its
operating margins. Nevertheless, according to the projections for
2013 provided by PS, the administration will seek to maintain
healthy operating margins. In Fitch's opinion, the administration
has the ability to manage operating spending pressure.

In 2012, the only public entity with outstanding debt was REMSA
with ARP80.5m under a financial trust. Although this is off-
balance debt, all debt service is being covered by the province
and this debt is therefore included in "other Fitch classified
debt" in the agency's calculation. The provincial pension fund is
not a direct contingency for the PS as it depends on the federal
government for repayment.

In March 2012, PS issued USD185m 10-year notes secured by its oil
and gas royalties. Following the repayment in December 2012 of the
bond issued under the "Salta Hydrocarbon Royalty Trust",
hydrocarbon royalties were assigned as collateral to USD185m bond.
In September 2013, the sixth service of quarterly interest was
paid at a fixed rate of 9.5% per annum. Up to this date, debt
service had an average coverage of 2.28x. The first amortization
payment will take place in December 2013, after the end of the
grace period of 21 months. Taking into consideration the capital
payment, Fitch estimates the royalties will be insufficient to
serve the debt in certain periods.

Also, the structure has, as credit enhancement, a reserve account
equivalent to the next debt service payment, which would be funded
gradually according to the terms of the transaction documents. On
18 September 2013, the account was made up of a dollar amount of
USD4,394,192, in a foreign account and a pesos amount of
$30,558,826 ($19,414,374 fixed within Macro Bank and $11,130,532
in the account) in a local account, which is equivalent to 100% of
the first service of capital. According to data as of September
2013, the indicators mentioned in the trust agreement have been
fulfilled, and the trigger events are, therefore, not active.

PS is one of the 24 Argentinean provinces, located in the
northwestern region of the country. Its population is estimated at
1.2 million, accounting for 3% of Argentina's population. The
province's GDP per capita in 2010 represented 32.5% of the
national median, due to a low developed provincial economy and
fairly weak socio-economic indicators. The current governor is
Juan Manuel Urtubey, who is running his second mandate in a row
with a majority in the provincial assembly. Mr. Urtubey's
government aims to widen coverage of social services and public
investment, combined with strong incentives for private economic
activity.

Key Assumptions and Sensitivities:

The Negative Outlook on the ratings reflects the high correlation
between the credit risk of the sovereign and the sub-national. A
downgrade of the Country Ceiling could result in a downgrade in
the province's ratings. Also, higher pressure on debt service
payment, due to a sharp increase in debt or a sharp decline in
operating margins, could adversely affect the ratings.

Any change in the rating of the province could impact on the
rating of the bond in the same direction. If there is an
improvement in the Argentine hydrocarbon market conditions, Fitch
will revise its potential positive impact on the bond rating,
albeit constrained by the Country Ceiling.

* DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: Trade Trumps Tension at Haiti Border
----------------------------------------------------------
Dominican Today reports that Dajabon's cross-border market has
eased tensions among Haitians and Dominicans, as merchants from
both sides hawk products and merchandise as always, but this time
with numerous troops posted at the bridge across the Masacre
River.

Haitians began crossing into Dajabon (northwest) on foot and in
vehicles to purchase mostly pastas, cooking oil and vegetables,
while according to Defense Minister Sigfrido Pared, trade was cut
in half at Jimani's market (west) and shuttered in Pedernales
(southwest), according to Dominican Today.

The report relates that Border Security (CESFRONT) agents and Army
troops frisked some Haitians with suspicious profiles prior to
their entry into Dominican territory.

The report notes that Freddy Morillo, head of Dajabon's merchants
association said trade has been normal so far, but didn't rule out
future incidents.  "We're in contact with our Haitian colleagues
coordinating measures to avert disturbances in the course of the
market," Mr. Morillo said, the report relates.

Haitian truckers also crossed into Dominican territory without
incident, after threats to boycott the market on alleged abuses
from their Dajabon and Santiago counterparts, the report adds.

DIGICEL GROUP: Sees Dip in Revenue for July to September Quarter
----------------------------------------------------------------
RJR News reports that movements in the value of the Jamaican
dollar and currencies in two other markets have contributed to a
decline in total group revenues at Digicel Group.

Revenues at Digicel Group, which is owned by businessman Denis
O'Brien, fell US$7 million to US$691 million the three months to
the end of September, according to RJR News.

The report relates that Irish Times newspaper said the information
is contained in financial statements sent to Digicel Group
bondholders.

Despite underlying growth of two per cent, the company blamed a
fall against the dollar in the currencies of Haiti, Papua New
Guinea and Jamaica for the dip in sales, RJR News notes.

In Jamaica, revenues fell by nine per cent to US$107 million, the
report relates.

Digicel Group said its underlying revenues had grown by one per
cent, and added that the Jamaican dollar had fallen by 12 per
cent, the report notes.

While revenues fell slightly, it was an improved performance on
the previous three months to the end of June, when Digicel Group
made a net loss of about US$11 million, the report adds.

Digicel Group, with regional headquarters in Jamaica, entered the
Panama market in 2008.

Digicel Limited's proposed US$700 million senior notes due 2021.
Proceeds from the issuance are expected to be used to refinance

BANCO AHORRO: S&P Affirms 'B' Rating; Outlook Positive
------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'B' long-term
global scale and 'mxBBB-/MxA-3' national scale issuer credit
ratings on Banco Ahorro Famsa S.A. Institucion de Banca Multiple
(BAF).  The outlook is positive.

The ratings on BAF reflect its core status to its parent Mexico-
based retailer Grupo Famsa S.A.B. de C.V. (Grupo Famsa;
B/Positive/--).  The bank has a "weak" business position,
"adequate" capital and earnings, "moderate" risk position,
"average" funding, and "adequate" liquidity, as S&P's criteria
define these terms.  The issuer credit ratings on BAF are limited
by the rating of its parent, Grupo Famsa, given that the bank is
considered a captive operation closely linked with the group.
BAF's stand-alone credit profile (SACP) is 'bb'.

"The issuer credit rating on BAF is three notches below its SACP,
reflecting the ratings on Grupo Famsa.  BAF's business activities
are mainly related to the group and most of BAF's products are
offered through Famsa stores, other subsidiaries' customers, and
suppliers.  The significant integration between the bank and the
group generates strategies, growth, and risk management that
benefit BAF," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Ricardo Grisi.

CL FIN'L: Minister Points Out Lessons From Company Crisis
---------------------------------------------------------
Trinidad and Tobago Newsday reports that Trinidad and Tobago
Finance Minister Larry Howai said the Colonial Life Insurance
Company Limited (Clico)/ CL Financial Limited crisis were the
result of a lack of adherence to the proper corporate governance
practices.

Minister Howai said this crisis has taught the country that the
State and private sectors must be held to the same level of
accountability at all times, according to Trinidad and Tobago
Newsday.

The report relates that observing the lack of sound risk
management and corporate governance practices played a major role
in the world financial crisis of 2008, Minister Howai said: "At
home, we had the unfortunate experience of the CL Financial
debacle."

While Minister Howai welcomed the Code and its objectives,
Minister Howai said it was important to remember that "that the
best rules amount to nothing if they are not adhered to or
enforced," the report notes.

The report relates that Minister Howai said while many persons in
TT believe the private sector cannot be held to the same level of
accountability as the State sector, both the 2008 world financial
meltdown and "our own experience with CL Financial has taught us
differently."

Meanwhile, the report discloses that Attorney General Anand
Ramlogan said that Government hopes to receive the final report of
the Clico/HCU Commission of Enquiry report before Easter.

The government is currently considering a proposed new CL
Financial shareholders agreement, the report adds.

                         About CL Financial

CL Financial Limited is a privately held conglomerate in Trinidad
and Tobago.  Founded as an insurance company by Cyril Duprey,
Colonial Life Insurance Company 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.

Aug. 6, 2013, Caribbean360.com said that over TT$8 billion worth
of Colonial Life Insurance Company Limited's (CLICO) profitable
business will be transferred to Atruis, a new company that will be
owned by the state.  CLICO is a subsidiary of CL Financial
Limited.  The Trinidad Express said that the Cabinet approved the
transfer as the Finance and General Purposes Committee continues
to discuss a letter of intent hammered out by the Ministry of
Finance and CL Financial's 400 shareholders, which envisions
taxpayers will recover the more than TT$20 billion Government has
injected since 2009 to keep CL subsidiary CLICO and other
companies afloat, according to Caribbean360.com.

Caribbean360.com noted that CLICO financially caved in on itself
at the end of 2008 after the investment instruments of major
policyholders matured and they wanted hundreds of millions of
dollars they were owed.

Caribbean360.com related that at its annual general meeting in
Sept. 2013, CL Financial shareholders voted to extend the
agreement with Government until August 25, 2014, while Cabinet
decides on a new framework accord to recover the debt owed to
Government through divestment of CL subsidiaries, including
Methanol Holdings, Republic Bank, Angostura Holdings, CL World
Brands and Home Construction Ltd.

Proceeds from the divestment of these assets will go toward
Government's recovery of the billions it pumped into CLICO,
Caribbean360.com said.

PETROLEOS DE VENEZUELA: Finalizes Accord With Gazprombank
---------------------------------------------------------
Pietro D. Pitts at Bloomberg News reports that OAO Gazprombank
signed a US$1 billion loan for the Petrozamora joint venture in
Venezuela to increase crude production and expand infrastructure.

Petroleos de Venezuela SA and Gazprombank finalized the accord in
Caracas attended by PDVSA President Rafael Ramirez and Gazprombank
executives Boris Ivanov and Alexander Muranov.  The eight-year
loan will be used to almost double Petrozamora's production to
104,000 barrels a day from 63,000 barrels, according to Bloomberg
News.

"The deal shows that despite the problems and challenges Venezuela
is still able to secure enough financial support to move forward
with its oil projects," Tissot Associate Consultant Roger Tissot
told Bloomberg News in a phone interview from British Columbia.

PDVSA has a 60 percent stake in the Petrozamora project in Western
Venezuela while Gazprombank owns the rest.  The venture was formed
in May 2012 to explore and produce from oil fields Lagunillas
Tierra and Bachaquero Tierra in western Venezuela's Zulia state.

"Since constituting Petrozamora we have spent two years opening
offices and building up personnel," Gazprombank Vice President
Muranov told reporters, Bloomberg News relates. "Now that we have
the project financed we can concentrate on increasing production",
Mr. Muranov added, Bloomberg News says.

Mr. Ramirez, also Venezuela's oil minister, said the financing
accord with Gazprombank is one of five between international
partners totaling US$10 billion that aim to increase production to
678,000 barrels a day from 365,000 barrels, Bloomberg News notes.

Still, Mr. Ramirez told reporters Venezuela cut its 2014 oil
output target to 3 million barrels a day from 4 million to
maintain its OPEC production quota for next year, Bloomberg News
discloses.

Petroleos de Venezuela S.A. -- http://www.pdvsa.com/-- engages in
the exploration, production, refining, transport, and commerce of
hydrocarbons.  The company was founded in 1975 and is based in
Caracas, Venezuela.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
June 20, 2013, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its
long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings on
Petroleos de Venezuela S.A. (PDVSA) to 'B' from 'B+'.  The outlook
remains negative.

                            ***********


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
