ARGENTINA: U.S. Urges Supreme Court to Review Debt Case
-------------------------------------------------------
Daily Bankruptcy Review, citing Agence France-Presse, reports that
the U.S. government has urged the Supreme Court to intervene in
Argentina's fight over paying up on its defaulted debt, saying a
lower court ruling against the country was wrong.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
Nov. 21, 2013, Bloomberg News said that Argentina lost its bid for
a rehearing of a federal appeals court ruling against it in
litigation over $1.5 billion in the nation's defaulted bonds.  The
U.S Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in Manhattan on
Nov. 18 rejected Argentina's request that a larger panel of
circuit judges reconsider a decision that a three-judge panel
reached in August, according to Bloomberg News.

Bloomberg News related that the three judges upheld a lower-court
injunction barring Argentina from paying holders of its
restructured debt if it fails to pay a group of investors that
hold defaulted bonds, led by Elliott Management Corp.'s NML
Capital and Aurelius Capital Management LP.  The ruling leaves a
possible appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court as Argentina's last
chance at reversing a decision it said threatens the country with
a new default, Bloomberg News noted.  The appeals court delayed
enforcement of the August ruling, allowing Argentina to continue
paying holders of its restructured debt while it seeks Supreme
Court review, Bloomberg News relayed.

Argentina in 2001 defaulted on a record $95 billion of foreign
debt.  Holders of more than 90 percent of the bonds agreed to take
new exchange bonds in 2005 and 2010, at a deep discount, Bloomberg
News said.  The court also denied requests by groups holding
restructured bonds to reconsider the case, Bloomberg News added.

The lower court case is NML Capital Ltd. v. Republic of Argentina,
08-cv-06978, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York
(Manhattan).  The appeal is NML Capital Ltd. v. Republic of
Argentina, 12-00105, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
(New York).

INVESTIMENTOS E PARTICIPACOES: S&P Assigns 'BB' Global Scale CCR
----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'BB' global scale
and 'brA+' national scale corporate credit ratings to
Investimentos e Participacoes em Infraestrutura S.A. (Invepar).
The outlook is stable.

The ratings on Invepar reflect the company's "satisfactory"
business risk profile and "aggressive" financial risk profile.  In
recent years, Invepar has significantly increased its
participation in transportation infrastructure projects in Brazil,
taking advantage of the government's several concession programs
aimed at improving the country's public transportation services
and infrastructure.  Invepar has built a very diversified
portfolio, which includes toll roads, urban mobility projects, and
the largest airport in Latin America, the GRU Airport in Sao
Paulo.  The sharp increase in new projects in its portfolio has
led to a significant need for financing, mostly through new debt
issuances, resulting leveraged credit  metrics.  Although S&P
expects these projects to ramp up and boost cash flow generation
in the next one to three years, S&P also believes Invepar will
continue to actively participate in new public bidding processes.
As a result, its credit metrics will only slightly improve.

* DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: San Juan Province to Get US$35MM IDB Loan
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Dominican Republic's San Juan Province will strengthen its
productive capacity, competitiveness, and environmental and
financial sustainability with the help of a US$35 million loan
from the Inter-American Development Bank.

The province's producers currently confront obstacles that limit
their ability to convert to new crops and develop market linkages.
The IDB program aims to address these limitations by improving
access of producers and entrepreneurs to credit services and
markets, reducing transportation costs in the province's road
network, and optimizing irrigation systems.

The program includes measures to facilitate access to credit for
producers on feasible terms as well as finance public investments.
These investments, primarily in irrigation and roads, are expected
to trigger boosts in productivity and improve market access.

Program activities are designed to improve productivity and
exports of producers participating in the program, as well as
reduce transport time and costs and improve irrigation systems for
users.

The IDB loan is for a term of 181/2 years with a grace period of
12 years and an interest rate based on LIBOR.  Local counterpart
contribution totals US$3.3 million.

PAN-CARIBBEAN SUGAR: Forks Out US$30 Mil. to Replace Mill Bearings
------------------------------------------------------------------
RJR News reports that Pan-Caribbean Sugar Company has forked out
US$30 million to replace the mill bearings which were stolen from
the Monymusk Estate earlier this year.

The 26 stolen bearings, each weighing half a ton, were valued at
J$28 million, according to RJR News.

The report notes that a statement from Pan Caribbean said the new
bearings have arrived in the island and will be quickly installed
to ensure the timely start of the Monymusk factory for the
2013/2014 Sugar Crop.

The company is still offering a 100-thousand dollar reward for the
recovery of the stolen bearings, the report relays.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
March 22, 2013, RJR News said that the majority of the 178 workers
whose positions were made redundant by Pan Caribbean Sugar Company
have received their separation packages.  The Bustamante
Industrial Trade Union (BITU) said a small number of persons are
yet to be paid, according to RJR News.  The report related that
this is expected to be done before the end of the month, according
to Harold Brown, BITU deputy island supervisor.  Mr. Brown, the
report noted, said there is an agreement with Pan Caribbean Sugar
that could be beneficial to the displaced workers in the future.

VALUE SA: Moody's Affirms Global Local Currency Ratings at 'Ba3'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's de Mexico affirmed Value, S.A. de C.V. Casa de Bolsa's
long- and short-term global local currency Ba3/Not-Prime issuer
ratings, and changed the outlook to stable from positive. At the
same time, Moody's affirmed Value's A3.mx/MX-2 long- and short-
term Mexican National Scale ratings. The outlook on these ratings
is also stable.

Ratings Rationale:

Moody's noted that the Ba3 rating reflects the broker dealer's
stable performance that derives from a low-risk business model and
a highly capitalized operation. Particularly important is Value's
success in leveraging its agency trading business to support its
franchise value as reflected by its good core earnings generation
and comfortable levels of pre-tax margins over time. The ratings
are also underpinned by Value's good track record of operations ,
successful niche business and conservative risk management.

In changing the outlook to stable from positive, Moody's cited the
increasing competition in Value's niche segment of asset
management and brokerage services to high net worth individuals,
which will limit the company's expansion and earnings generation.
Value's less diversified operation and distribution capacity
relative to its larger, international peers --as reflected in
narrow geographic focus in two major Mexican cities-- is likely to
constrain business growth potential. Moreover, because of its
predominantly domestic brokerage business, Value is also less
likely to benefit from growing interest by foreign investors for
Mexican assets. Conversely, management's conservative risk profile
and the company's focus on agency trading in money markets provide
comfort that Value will adhere to its low-risk business model.

Moody's also notes that the decision-making process at Value is
concentrated in a handful of key executives, which may result in
potential key-man risks. Moreover, the brokerage house's family-
based ownership structure raises concerns of potential corporate
governance risks.

Value is primarily engaged in agency trading in the money markets,
and is also active in the distribution of mutual funds.
Proprietary trading is of low relevance for Value thus the firm
bears a low-risk profile overall.

Value is headquartered in Monterrey, NL; Mexico. As of 30
September 2013 it reported MXN 715 million in pre-tax earnings and
held MXN 77 billion of assets under management.

The long-term Mexican National Scale ratings of A.mx indicate
issuers or issues with above-average creditworthiness relative to
other domestic issuers. The short- term Mexican National Scale
ratings of issuers rated MX-2 indicate above average ability to
repay short-term senior unsecured debt obligations relative to
other domestic issuers.

The sources and items of information used to determine the ratings
include 2012 and 2013 interim financial statements (source:
Moody's and Value); year-end 2012 and 2011 audited financial
statements (source: Value, audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers, S.
C., and Moody's); financial statements and information on market
position (source: CNBV); regulatory capital information (source:
CNBV).

PARAGUAY: S&P Affirms Sovereign Sovereign Credit Rating at 'BB-'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'BB-/B' foreign
and local currency long- and short-term sovereign credit ratings
on the Republic of Paraguay.  The rating outlook remains stable.
The 'BB' transfer and convertibility assessment remains unchanged.

                             RATIONALE

Paraguay's developing political institutions, less developed and
volatile economy, and limited monetary flexibility constrain the
ratings.  The ratings are supported by its solid fiscal position,
low government debt burden, and sound external indicators, though
there are inconsistencies in the external data.

Despite the improvements in the country's economic fundamentals,
still-developing institutional capacity--as highlighted in areas
such as debt management and financial supervision--remains a
rating constraint.  Given Paraguay's still-evolving political
institutions, economic prospects remain vulnerable to political
dynamics and, therefore, more uncertain.  President Horacio
Cartes' ability to maintain a unified base within the Colorado
Party (Partido Colorado, in Spanish) is a key political challenge.
Even though Cartes was elected with the support of the largest
traditional party in Paraguay, he is not necessarily considered a
core member of the party. Ongoing discussions to appoint key
positions in the Administration will still require tough
negotiations between the president and his party.

Standard & Poor's expects the government to have a fiscal deficit
of less than 2% of GDP in 2013.  S&P expects the deficit to
decline over time, based on the implementation of different fiscal
measures, including a Fiscal Responsibility Law and measures aimed
at improving tax collection.  The passage of these pieces of
legislation constitutes an advance in institutionalizing economic
policymaking in Paraguay, but implementation is equally important.

Paraguay has a long tradition of containing fiscal imbalances,
which historically has maintained government debt at very low
levels.  Net general government debt is estimated at 6% of GDP in
2013.  At the same time, the country's external indicators appear
to have strengthened as a result of solid export growth (except in
2009 and 2012) and rising usable official reserves, which now
cover more than three months of current account payments.
Paraguay's external liquidity is based on the expectation that
gross external financing requirements will reach 83% of current
account receipts plus usable reserves in 2013.  The authorities
have recently revised the country's international investment
position to include the external liabilities of the two large
binational hydroelectric dams.  This has moved Paraguay into a
sizable net external liability position and has made the stocks
more consistent with the balance of payments flows.  However, S&P
has decided not to incorporate these changes into its data
analysis until the process has concluded and because of the nature
of the dams' debt.  The creditors of the debt are the same
government owners, and the debt is payable with the export of the
energy produced in the dams.

The high level of dollarization in the economy (a high proportion
of depository corporation claims is in dollars, roughly 45% as of
mid-2013) and a history of central bank deficits have constrained
Paraguay's monetary flexibility.  The latter were a function of
nonperforming loans to government-owned entities and financial
institutions and were largely incurred prior to the 1995 charter
prohibiting such practices.  The government capitalized the
central bank over the past year by issuing a perpetual bond for
$890 million with the aim of solving this long-standing issue.  In
addition, the Paraguayan economy depends highly on agriculture and
international trade, which leaves it more exposed to fluctuations
in world commodity prices, weather, and the economic prospects of
its key trading partners.  Nonetheless, S&P expects a very strong
harvest in 2013, after a difficult 2012 marked by drought, to push
real GDP per capita growth to more than 10% in 2013.  S&P expects
real GDP per capita growth to decelerate starting in 2014,
averaging 3% over the next three years. This growth should boost
Paraguay's low GDP per capita above US$4,000.

                              OUTLOOK

The stable outlook reflects S&P's view that there is less than a
one-in-three chance that it would change the rating over the next
year as institutional challenges, low economic development, and
external vulnerabilities offset the promise of the new
government's fiscal reform agenda.  The ambitious fiscal reform
agenda of the new Administration of President Cartes is likely to
face significant implementation challenges that could jeopardize
its ability to improve external and fiscal dynamics and make them
less vulnerable to political events.

S&P could raise the ratings if the government continues to improve
economic institutions via better external and fiscal performance.
The rating could also benefit from important investment projects,
which would further boost growth prospects and external
indicators. Additional reform measures in the areas of debt
management and financial supervision would also improve rating
prospects.  On the other hand, rapid credit growth that impairs
external and fiscal flexibility or leads to financial sector
problems could lead to a downgrade.

"In accordance with our relevant policies and procedures, the
Rating Committee was composed of analysts that are qualified to
vote in the committee, with sufficient experience to convey the
appropriate level of knowledge and understanding of the
methodology applicable.  At the onset of the committee, the chair
confirmed that the information provided to the Rating Committee by
the primary analyst had been distributed in a timely manner and
was sufficient for Committee members to make an informed
decision," S&P said.

After the primary analyst gave opening remarks and explained the
recommendation, the Committee discussed key rating factors and
critical issues in accordance with the relevant criteria.
Qualitative and quantitative risk factors were considered and
discussed, looking at track-record and forecasts.  The chair
ensured every voting member was given the opportunity to
articulate his/her opinion.  The chair or designee reviewed the
draft report to ensure consistency with the Committee decision.
The views and the decision of the rating committee are summarized
in the above rationale and outlook.

PCS NITROGEN: Fires Long-Time Employees to Reduce Workforce
-----------------------------------------------------------
Carolyn Kissoon at Trinidad Express reports that PCS Nitrogen
Trinidad Ltd has fired more than a dozen long-standing employees
as the company moves to reduce its workforce.

Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan (PotashCorp), the Canadian
parent company, also disclosed that it is taking steps to reduce
its workforce in Canada, the United States and Trinidad and Tobago
by 18 per cent, according to Trinidad Express.

PCS Nitrogen's employees, some of whom have been employed for
three decades, were handed termination letters, with immediate
effect, the report notes.

The report notes that PotashCorp issued a statement that the
company expects to reduce the workforce by region.

The company stated that approximately 440 people would be laid off
in Saskatchewan, 130 in New Brunswick, 350 in Florida, 85 in North
Carolina and 40 workers in other US locations and
Trinidad, the report relates.

The company explained that a significant portion of fertilizer
demand comes from developing market growth which has been less
robust than expected, the report relays.

Trinidad Express notes that PotashCorp stated that the company had
identified necessary changes to respond to market conditions;
reduce costs to enhance the global competitive position of the
company; and maintain operational flexibility in potash to meet
anticipated future demand growth.

"This is a difficult day for our employes and our company. While
these are the steps we must take to run the sustainable business
and protect the long-term interests of all our stakeholders, these
decisions are never easy.  We understand the impact is not only on
our people, but also in the communities where we work and live,
and PotashCorp will work hard to help those affected through this
challenging time," the report quoted PotashCorp President and
Chief Executive officer Bill Doyle as saying.

PotashCorp is a crop nutrient company and plays an integral role
in global food production.

PCS Nitrogen Trinidad Ltd is located on the Pt Lisas Industrial
Estate.


* TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: To Get US$18MM IDB Loan for IT Services
--------------------------------------------------------------
Trinidad and Tobago will receive an US$18 million loan from the
Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) to help the country expand
its ability to offer global information technology-enabled
services (ITeS).

The project aims to help position Trinidad and Tobago as a
regional hub for the provision of global IT services by providing
training, investment promotion and branding, and capacity building
to improve the business climate and regulations.

Trinidad is well positioned to capitalize on a worldwide trend
toward outsourcing of IT services.  The country ranks well
regionally for the quality of its educational system, including
math and science knowledge and management training.  Its English-
speaking population is equipped with the necessary language skills
required by the industry. In addition, the country's IT
infrastructure is considered among the best in the region.

Because the country's small population means the talent pool is
limited, the project includes creation of a Global Services
Internationalization Hub to provide training and support services
adapted to the needs of local companies and international
investors.  The project finances the lease of a building to
establish physical space for the hub, creating opportunities for
collaborative work and innovation, which will enable Small and
Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to increase their export capacity.

Additionally, the project includes creation of a marketing and
branding strategy and engagement with Trinidad and Tobago's
diaspora population in order to promote the country's image as a
reliable provider of global ITeS.

The IDB loan is for 25 years, with a grace period of 5-1/2 years,
with an interest rate based on LIBOR.

                            ***********


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
