FIDEICOMISO FINANCIERO: Moody's Rates ARS45.49M Debt Sec. Ba3
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Latin America (Moody's) has rated the debt securities and
certificates of Fideicomiso Financiero Credi-Al Serie III. This
transaction will be issued by Equity Trust Company (Argentina)
S.A. -- acting solely in its capacity as issuer and trustee.
Moody's notes that the securities contemplated by this transaction
have not yet settled. If any assumptions or factors considered by
Moody's in assigning the ratings change before closing, Moody's
could change the ratings assigned to the notes.
Issuer: Fideicomiso Financiero Credi-Al Serie III
-- ARS 45,490,000 Class A Floating Rate Debt Securities (VRDA TV),
rated Aaa.ar (sf) (Argentine National Scale) and Ba3 (sf) (Global
Scale, Local Currency)
-- ARS 10,498,000 Class B Floating Rate Debt Securities (VRDB TV),
rated Baa3.ar (sf) (Argentine National Scale) and B3 (sf) (Global
Scale, Local Currency)
-- ARS 8,398,000 in Class C Debt Securities (VRDC), rated B1.ar
(sf) (Argentine National Scale) and Caa2 (sf) (Global Scale, Local
Currency)
-- ARS 5,599,000 in Certificates (CP), rated B3.ar (sf) (Argentine
National Scale) and Caa2 (sf) (Global Scale, Local Currency).
Ratings Rationale:
The ratings are based mainly on:
-- The credit enhancement levels, including initial subordination
of 29.80% for the VRDA TV, 13.60% for the VRDB TV, and 0.64% for
the VRDC, calculated over the pool's principal balance and accrued
interest as of the cut-off date. Subordination levels will
increase overtime due to the sequential payment structure;
-- The high excess spread levels of the transaction;
-- The credit quality of the underlying assets and the
availability of various reserve funds.
The rated securities are payable from the cashflow coming from the
assets of the trust, which is an revolving pool of eligible
personal loans denominated in Argentine pesos, bearing fixed
interest rate, and originated by Gramit, a financial company owned
by Comafi's Group in Argentina.
Both the VRDA TV and VRDB TV will bear a floating interest rate
(BADLAR plus a spread). For the VRDA TV, the interest rate will
not be higher than 26% or lower than 17%, while for the VRDB TV,
it will not be higher than 28% or lower than 19%. The VRDC will
bear a fixed interest rate of 28%.
The transaction also benefits from an estimated gross 71% annual
excess spread, before considering losses, trust expenses, taxes or
prepayments and calculated at the interest rate cap of the VRD,
during the revolving period.
During the revolving period, any excess collections after paying
interest and scheduled principal will be used to acquire new
eligible loans. The new loans will be acquired at a 96.20% annual
discount rate and will have to comply with the same eligibility
criteria than the original pool. If there is an early amortization
event, the acquisition of new loans will be suspended and all the
cashflow will be used to amortize the VRDA TV.
Factors that would lead to an upgrade or downgrade of the rating
An increase in delinquency levels beyond Moody's assumptions when
rating this transaction may lead to a downgrade of the ratings.
Although Moody's analyzed the historical performance data of
previous transactions and similar receivables originated by
Gramit, the actual performance of the securitized pool could be
subject to high variability and may be affected, among others, by
the economic activity, real salaries in a high inflation
environment and the unemployment rate in Argentina.
Also, a deterioration in the credit quality of the transaction's
servicer (Gramit) could lead to a downgrade, given that all the
collections will be paid in cash at the branches of Gramit.
Loss and Cash Flow Analysis
Moody's considered the credit enhancement provided through the
initial subordination levels for each rated class, as well as the
historical performance of Gramit's portfolio. In addition, Moody's
considered factors common to consumer loans securitizations such
as delinquencies, prepayments and losses; as well as specific
factors related to the Argentine market, such as the probability
of an increase in losses if there are changes in the macroeconomic
scenario in Argentina.
These factors were incorporated in a cash flow model that takes
into account all the relevant features of the transaction's assets
and liabilities. Monte Carlo simulations were run, which determine
the expected loss for the rated securities.
In rating this transaction, Moody's analyzed the historical
performance data of previous transactions and similar receivables
originated by Credi-al, ranging from January 2011 to June 2013.
Moody's assumed a lognormal distribution of losses for the
securitized pool with a mean of 14% and a coefficient of variation
of 60%. Also, Moody's assumed a lognormal distribution for
prepayments with a mean of 2% and a coefficient of variation of
70%
Servicer default was modeled by simulating the default of Gramit
as servicer. In the scenarios in which the servicer defaults,
Moody's assumed that the defaults on the pool would increase by 30
percentage points.
The model results showed 1.16% expected loss for Class A Floating
Rate Debt Securities (VRDA TV), 9.51% for Class B Floating Rate
Debt Securities (VRDB TV), 15.44% for the Class C Debt Securities
(VRDC) and 22.46% for the Certificates (CP).
Moody's also evaluated the back-up servicing arrangements in the
transaction. If Credi-Al is removed as servicer, Banco Comafi,
rated B2/A1.ar, will be appointed as the back-up servicer.
Stress Scenarios
Moody's ran several stress scenarios, including increases in the
default rate assumptions. If default rates were increased 3% from
the base case scenario, the ratings of the Class A Floating Rate
Debt Securities, the Class B Floating Rate Debt Securities and the
Certificates would likely be downgraded to B1 (sf), Caa1 (sf) and
Caa3 (sf) respectively. The ratings of the Class C Debt Securities
would likely be unchanged.
Gramit is a financial company owned by Comafi's group that
commercializes personal loans and credit cards under the brand
"Credi-Al". Their business model is based on originating personal
loans to clients who do not have direct access to the banking
system. Gramit operates mainly in Buenos Aires.
Moody's National Scale Credit Ratings (NSRs) are intended as
relative measures of creditworthiness among debt issues and
issuers within a country, enabling market participants to better
differentiate relative risks. NSRs differ from Moody's global
scale credit ratings in that they are not globally comparable with
the full universe of Moody's rated entities, but only with NSRs
for other rated debt issues and issuers within the same country.
NSRs are designated by a ".nn" country modifier signifying the
relevant country, as in ".mx" for Mexico.
FIDEICOMISO FINANCIERO: Moody's Rates ARS192MM Debt Securities Ba3
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Latin America Calificadora de Riesgo rates Fideicomiso
Financiero Supervielle Creditos 75, a transaction that will be
issued by Equity Trust (Argentina) S.A. - acting solely in its
capacity as Issuer and Trustee.
The securities for this transaction have not yet been placed in
the market. If any assumption or factor Moody's considers when
assigning the ratings change before closing, the ratings may also
change.
-- ARS 192,000,000 in Floating Rate Debt Securities of
"Fideicomiso Financiero Supervielle Creditos 75", rated Aaa.ar
(sf) (Argentine National Scale) and Ba3 (sf) (Global Scale, Local
Currency)
-- ARS 8,000,000 in Certificates of "Fideicomiso Financiero
Supervielle Creditos 75", rated Ba3.ar (sf) (Argentine National
Scale) and Caa1 (sf) (Global Scale, Local Currency)
Ratings Rationale:
The rated securities are payable from the cash flow coming from
the assets of the trust, which is an amortizing pool of
approximately 28,086 eligible personal loans denominated in
Argentine pesos, with a fixed interest rate, originated by Banco
Supervielle, in an aggregate amount of ARS 200,001,254.07.
These personal loans are granted to pensioners that receive their
monthly pensions from ANSES (Argentina's National Governmental
Agency of Social Security - Administraci¢n Nacional de la
Seguridad Social). The pool is also constituted by loans granted
to government employees of the Province of San Luis. Banco
Supervielle is the payment agent entity and automatically deducts
the monthly loan installment directly from the employee's paycheck
and pensioner's payment.
Overall credit enhancement is comprised of 4% of subordination for
the Class A Floating Rate Debt Securities. In addition the
transaction has various reserve funds and excess spread.
Factors that would lead to an upgrade or downgrade of the rating
Factors that may lead to a downgrade of the ratings include an
increase in delinquency levels beyond the level Moody's assumed
when rating this transaction, and a disruption in the flow of
payments from ANSES or the Government of San Luis to pensioners
and employees respectively.
Factors that may lead to an upgrade of the ratings include the
building of credit enhancement over time due to the turbo
sequential payment structure, when compared with the level of
projected losses in the securitized pool.
Loss and Cash Flow Analysis
Moody's considered the credit enhancement provided in this
transaction through the initial subordination levels for each
rated class, as well as the historical performance of
Supervielle's portfolio. In addition, Moody's considered factors
common to consumer loans securitizations such as delinquencies,
prepayments and losses; as well as specific factors related to the
Argentine market, such as the probability of an increase in losses
if there are changes in the macroeconomic scenario in Argentina.
These factors were incorporated in a cash flow model in order to
determine the expected loss for the rated securities. Finally,
Moody's also evaluated the back-up servicing arrangements in the
transaction.
In assigning the rating to this transaction, Moody's assumed a
lognormal distribution for defaults on the main pool with a mean
of 2.5% and a coefficient of variation of 50%. Also, Moody's
assumed a lognormal distribution for prepayments with a mean of
25% and a coefficient of variation of 70%. These assumptions are
derived from the historical performance to date of the
Supervielle's pools. Servicer default was modeled by simulating
the default of the Banco Supervielle as the servicer consistent
with its current rating of B2/Aa3.ar. In the scenarios where the
servicer defaults, Moody's assumed that the defaults on the pool
would increase by 20 percentage points.
The model results showed 1.16% expected loss for the Floating Rate
Debt Securities and 17.24% for the Certificates.
Finally, Moody's also evaluated the back-up servicing arrangements
in the transaction. If Banco Supervielle is removed as servicer,
Equity Trust S.A. will be appointed as the back-up servicer.
Stress Scenarios
Moody's ran several stress scenarios, including increases in the
default rate assumptions. If default rates were increased 4% from
the base case scenario for the pool (i.e., mean of 6.5% and a
coefficient of variation of 50%), the ratings of the Floating Rate
debt securities and the Certificates would likely be downgraded to
B1 (sf) and Ca (sf) respectively.

GENNEIA: Moody's Rates $25MM Notes B3/A3.ar; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Latin America assigned B3/A3.ar ratings to Genneia's Class
XIII proposed notes for up to USD 25 million and at the same time
affirmed its B3/A3.ar global local currency corporate family
rating and the B3/A3.ar rating on Genneia's other outstanding
notes. The outlook for all ratings is stable.
Genneia will use the proceeds from the new notes to repay other
short term debt and to anticipate the funding of its next year's
financing needs.
Ratings Rationale:
The B3/A3.ar ratings are supported by Genneia's stable cash flows
arising primarily from its wind and "energia distribuida" (ED)
operations coupled with its moderately leveraged financial
position.
The company's wind farm entered into commercial operations almost
two years ago (in early 2012) and has generated energy in line
with expectations, achieving capacity factors above 40% at times,
which has resulted in stable revenues under a long term (15
years), fixed price "off-take contract" with Cammesa, a federal
government agency that administers the wholesale electricity
market in Argentina.
The ED contracts are also producing stable revenues and cash flows
under long term contracts as well. Originally, the ED contracts'
term was three years but in 2012 the company renewed all of them
and extended its contractual horizon to 7 years. Under the terms
of these ED agreements the company should generate stable revenues
of approximately USD 110 million per year.
The ratings are also supported by the various payment mechanisms
available for debt repayment. Most of Genneia's outstanding debt
is payable from direct transfers to a trustee arising from
collections under the Res. 220 ED contracts and by payments under
the "off-take contract" with Cammesa for the wind farm production.
Nevertheless, the ratings remain constrained by the concentration
of its operations in only the Argentinean market, which has been
highly unpredictable in recent years. Furthermore, most of
Genneia's cash flows arise from contracts where the off-taker is
directly Cammesa, or indirectly Cammesa since it administers the
wholesale electricity market in Argentina. Cammesa administers not
only the operation of the system but also manages all collections
and payments. Since the price paid for electricity by most
consumers is not enough to cover electricity production costs,
Cammesa faces an ongoing operating deficit that is currently
financed with federal government resources to facilitate payments
to the producers. This represents a high degree of exposure to
Argentine government credit risk (B3, Negative), which adds a cap
to the ratings.
Additional constraining factors are Genneia's relatively tight
liquidity and limited financial flexibility. In particular,
Moody's sees Genneia's limited flexibility under its current bank
loan covenants as challenging.
After the investments to acquire rather than lease the turbines
for 4 of its ED power plants earlier this year for about USD 90
million, Genneia has completed most of its investment plan for
2013/2014 which along with stabilized operations and cash flows
should result in positive levels of free cash flow in relation to
existing debt over the coming years. Nevertheless, the company's
liquidity position is expected to remain tight, with substantial
short term debt maturities that will need to be rolled-over. In
that regard, Genneia's continued access to the local capital
market and/or bank financing will remain a key rating
consideration.
The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Genneia will
be able to continue producing stable cash flows while reducing
leverage over time.
Negative pressure on the ratings or outlook could occur if
Genneia's financial policy becomes more aggressive than expected.
Specifically, Moody's would become concerned should debt to EBITDA
exceed 4.5x times; interest coverage (CFO pre WC +
Interest/Interest) falls below 1.5x or RCF /Debt becomes lower
than 10%.
The ratings could also come under downward pressure if payments
from Cammesa begin to experience significant delays. In addition,
given Genneia's exposure to Argentine government credit risk, a
negative rating action at the sovereign level could also add
further downward rating pressure.
Given the current constraining rating factors, limited prospects
exist for an upgrade over the near term. Longer term a rating up-
grade would require Genneia to continue to generate stable cash
flows from its ED business and from its wind generation farm for
which Moody's would expect capacity realizations of around 40%.
Quantitatively, a rating upgrade would require Genneia to generate
CFO (pre WC) to debt of above 20%, and positive levels of FCF on a
sustainable basis. A reduction in leverage such that debt to
EBITDA falls below 2.5 times and an improved debt maturity profile
will also be important for an up-grade. In addition, given the
company's exposure to Cammesa, the sovereign rating would need to
be upgraded as well.
Genneia S.A., headquartered in the province of Buenos Aires,
Argentina, initiated operations in 1991 in the gas distribution
and transportation business under its previous denomination
"Emgasud". However, since 2008 power generation has been its main
business, contributing more than 90% of its total revenues. For
the last 12 months ending September 2013, Genneia reported
revenues of approximately USD 160 million.

BARBADOS: 3,000 Public Sector Workers to Lose Jobs
--------------------------------------------------
Trinidad Express reports that Barbados's Finance Minister, Chris
Sinckler, disclosed cost-saving measures that will result in
approximately 3,000 public sector employees on the island losing
their jobs.
Minister Sinckler made the announcement in a ministerial statement
to the Barbados Parliament on Dec. 14, according Trinidad Express.
"We have estimated that it will affect 3,000 employees across the
public service, central government and statutory entities," the
report quoted Minister Sinckler as saying. "We have agreed that,
if possible, there should be an even split in the proposed
retrenchments between central government and statutory entities;
but if not possible, then the split of 2,000 from the general
service and 1,000 from the statutory entities must be imposed,"
Minister Sinckler said, the report notes.
Minister Sinckler also disclosed that effective January 1, there
will also be a freeze on all increments.
"Effective January 1, 2014, there shall be enforced a freeze on
the payment of increments for the next two years. Appropriate
arrangements will be made for the lost of income to be properly
factored in to the computation of overall pension benefits . . .
both the Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs and the Ministry
of the Civil Service, including the Personnel Administration
division, have been mandated to continue consultation and
negotiations with the workers' representatives to ensure all
appropriate steps are taken to safeguard the rights of all workers
affected by these measures and to craft interventions aimed at
mitigating the dislocation which will undoubtedly be caused,
including those interested to enter into retraining and
redeployment programs in the private sector," Minister Sinckler
said, the report notes.
Minister Sinckler said all members of parliament, permanent
secretaries and personal assistants were taking a ten per cent
salary reduction, the report relays.
Ministries have also been instructed to immediately cut travel
budgets by 50 per cent, the report notes.
According to the finance minister, the governing Democratic Labor
Party government is trying to plug a gap of BDS$143 million
annually, including BDS$34 million in the last quarter of the
year, the report adds.

BR MALLS: Sees 20-25 New Malls in Brazil Next Year
--------------------------------------------------
Thomson Reuters reports that Brazilian mall operator BR Malls
Participacos SA expects 20 to 25 shopping centers to be opened in
Brazil in 2014, and 15 to 20 the following year, Chief Executive
Carlos Medeiros told investors. Mr. Medeiros said 2015 should be
a year of consolidation among mall operators, according to Thomson
Reuters.
The report notes that Mr. Medeiros said sales at stores open for
at least 12 months at BR Malls properties should grow between 6
percent and 8 percent next year, assuming no major changes in the
macroeconomic outlook.
BR Malls is based in Rio de Janeiro and is the owner and manager
of shopping centers in Brazil. BR Malls currently owns interests
in 45 malls diversified across 32 cities in Brazil plus has six
projects under development.
BR MALLS: Fitch Affirms Foreign Currency IDR at BB+
---------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings of BR MALLS Participacoes
S.A. (BRMALLS) as follows:
-- Foreign currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'BB+';
-- Local currency IDR at 'BB+;
-- Long-term national scale rating at 'AA(bra)';
-- BRL400 million local debentures, first and second tranches
due in 2017 and 2019, respectively, at 'AA(bra)';
-- BRL400 million local debentures due in 2016 at 'AA(bra)';
-- BRL320 million local debentures, first and second tranches
due in 2014 and 2016, respectively, at 'AA(bra)'.
Fitch has also affirmed the following ratings of BR Malls
International Finance Limited (Finco):
-- Foreign currency IDR at 'BB+';
-- USD405 million perpetual notes at 'BB+'.
The Rating Outlook is Stable.
BRMALLS' ratings reflect its dominant business position as the
largest Brazilian shopping center operator, stable and predictable
cash flow generation, geographical and property revenue base
diversification, and low working capital requirements with renters
responsible for most maintenance expenses.
The ratings also factors in BRMALLS' growth strategy, stable
capital structure, large pool of unencumbered assets, and
successful track record in growing the business. The company's
consistent use of a balance of equity and debt to fund its organic
and inorganic growth during the past five years has kept leverage
levels low relative to the value of its assets.
The Stable Rating Outlook reflects the expectation that BRMALLS
will continue to deliver positive operating results based upon its
strong market position and the high quality of its assets.
Leverage is not expected to increase from current levels, as
additional growth is expected to occur through a continued
balanced mix of funding that will not compromise its capital
structure.
Key Rating Drivers:
Business Fundamental, Positive View on the Sector
The ratings consider a positive view on the Brazilian mall
industry in the medium to long term based on its fundamentals,
which include Brazil's positive demographic changes, and the
upward migration of economic classes that has resulted in a
growing middle class. Medium-term retail consumption trends
coupled with still low penetration levels for the retails industry
also support the ratings. In the short term, a slowdown of the
Brazilian retail environment could result in more moderate revenue
growth rates for the shopping mall industry. The sector has
demonstrated resilience to past slowdowns due to its revenue and
rent-contract structures that incorporate fixed and inflation
adjusted components, which reduce the volatility in revenues and
cash flow generation.
Dominant Market Position and Business Diversification Incorporated
BRMALLS' ratings reflect the company's dominant business position
as the largest Brazilian shopping center operator. The company
held an interest in 51 malls with a total gross leasable area
(GLA) of 1,640,662 square meters and owned a GLA of 950,178 square
meters as of Sept. 30, 2013. BRMALLS' increased geographic
coverage, income, and tenant diversification make it less prone to
fluctuations in the domestic economy. The company has operations
in all five regions of Brazil; the largest mall represents
approximately 13% of its total revenue.
Stable Cash Flow Generation
BRMALLS' rents and net operating income per square meter are
stable to positive. They are supported by a lease structure that
consists of fixed rent payments (70%) and tenant reimbursements
(10%), which cover costs associated with property management and
taxes. The lease portfolio has staggered lease expiration dates.
About 75% of BRMALLS' rental income contracts have expiration
dates beginning in 2015 and beyond. BRMALLS' latest 12 month (LTM)
September 2013 EBITDA was BRL1 billion, a 46% increase when
compare with 2011 EBITDA (BRL689 million). The company's EBITDA
margin has remained stable at around 80% during the last five
years.
No Major Changes Expected in Leverage
The gross leverage of BRMALLS is expected to remain around 5x in
the medium term, which compares well with regional and global
players in the industry. As of Sept. 30, 2013, the company's total
debt was BRL5 billion. The company's gross and net leverage ratios
were 5x and 4.7x as of Sept. 30, 2013. Fitch base case projects
2014 revenues at approximately BRL1.4 billion and an EBITDA margin
of 80%. The company's investments during 2013-2014 period are
expected to be around BRL750 million per year, which should result
in gross leverage stable around 5x.
Adequate Liquidity
As of Sept. 30, 2013, the company faces debt amortizations of
BRL759 million and BRL427 million during the next 12 and 24
months, respectively, and has a cash position of BRL357 million.
The company has consistently maintained adequate interest coverage
ratios around 2x over the last four years. BRMALLS also has a high
level of unencumbered assets; approximately 50% of the company's
owned GLA is free of any liens.
Rating Sensitivities:
A stronger capital structure could lead to an increase in the
company's ratings. Fitch would consider a negative rating action
if the company's financial profile deteriorates due to some
combination of the following factors: aggressive capex; adverse
macroeconomic trends leading to weaker credit metrics; significant
dividend distributions; and higher vacancy rates or deteriorating
lease conditions.

ADVANCED MULTI: Placed Under Voluntary Wind-Up
----------------------------------------------
On Oct. 29, 2013, the sole member of Advanced Multi Management
Advisory Corporation resolved to voluntarily wind up the company's

GUARDIAN HOLDINGS: To Delist From Jamaica Stock Exchange
--------------------------------------------------------
Jamaica Observer reports that citing low levels of trading
activity on the Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE), Guardian Holdings
sought and got approval from the regulator to delist from the
exchange.
"The action by (Guardian) was reached after it undertook a
thorough analysis of the costs and benefits of maintaining its
dual listing on the Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange (TTSE) and
the JSE," said the regional insurer, which will continue to trade
in the twin-island republic, according to Jamaica Observer.
Indeed, the Jamaica Central Securities Depository listed just 70
persons and accounts holding some 3.4 million shares, which
represented less than 1.5 per cent of the total 231.9 million
ordinary shares issued by the company as at the end of November,
the report notes.
Perhaps more importantly, Guardian's shares traded on the JSE for
the second and most recent time in March, while the 852 shares
that crossed the floor was dwarfed by the 3.46 million shares that
traded on the TTSE, the report discloses.
Interestingly, the report relates, over the last 12 months, the
stock price in Jamaica fell slightly from J$278 a year ago to
J$270 the last time it traded, while in Trinidad the share price
fell more precipitously-after starting the year at TT$18.30, it
peaked at TT$19.98 in February and closed at TT$13.50 on Dec. 13.
On the other hand, remaining shareholders will have to contend
with exchange rate differences when registered and trading
overseas, the report notes.
The Observer says that the Jamaican dollar devalued against the US
by 14.5 per cent over the last 12 months compared to the 0.6 per
cent depreciation experienced by the Trinidadian dollar over the
same period, but Guardian's share price on Dec. 13 was still 22
per cent higher in Jamaica than in Trinidad, in US dollar terms.
The report says that Jamaican shareholders will also have to
consider money lost to the spread in converting currency should
they decide to sell shares after December 24 when Guardian closes
its register. The stock will delist from the JSE on December 31.
Guardian's market capitalization of J$62.6 billion is the third
highest on the JSE, after CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank
at J$137.3 billion and Sagicor Financial Corporation, J$72.2
billion.
A company is allowed to voluntarily apply for removal from the JSE
-- as was the case with Guardian -- provided that it submits a
detailed written application to the JSE.
In early 2010, the report recalls, GraceKennedy opted to delist
from the Barbados Stock Exchange (BSE) and Eastern Caribbean
Securities Exchange (ECSE) for similar reasons. Then, it had just
110 stockholders across the two Caribbean-based exchanges compared
to the 5,600 and 1,500 shareholders that were registered at the
respective central securities depositories in Jamaica and
Trinidad, the report adds.
Headquartered in Trinidad and Tobago, Guardian Holdings Limited,
through its subsidiaries, provides insurance and investment
products primarily in the Caribbean and England. It operates in
three segments: Life, Health and Pensions; Property and Casualty
Insurance; and Asset Management. The Life, Health and Pensions
segment underwrites various classes of long-term life, health, and
pension insurance products, as well as related investment
activities. Guardian Holdings was founded in 1982.

PETROLEOS DE VENEZUELA: S&P Lowers CCR to 'B-'; Outlook Negative
----------------------------------------------------------------
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.
The rating action on PDVSA followed the downgrade of Venezuela to
'B-' from 'B'. Based on S&P's criteria for GREs, it assess that
there is an "almost certain" likelihood that the government would
provide timely and extraordinary support to PDVSA, in case of
financial distress, and result in extraordinary financial burden
on it, in case of sovereign stress. S&P also revised its
assessment of the company's stand-alone credit profile (SACP) to
'b-'. S&P's assessment of an "almost certain" likelihood of
extraordinary government support is based on:
-- PDVSA's "critical" role as it contributes about 50% of
Venezuela's revenues and 90% of its exports;
-- Key role in meeting the sovereign's political and economic
objectives; and
-- Its "integral" link with the government, given its full and
stable ownership of the company.
S&P's anchor of 'b+', in turn, reflects the company's "weak"
business risk profile due to the government's heavy intervention
and the company's challenge to increase production. S&P's
assessment of an "aggressive" financial risk profile reflects a
continued rise in debt, the challenges to finance the very high
capital expenditures needed to develop reserves and increase
production, and considerable contributions to the government's
social programs.
The company's financial policy has a negative impact on S&P's
rating outcome. In addition S&P applies a downward adjustment of
one notch for comparable rating analysis. This is based on S&P's
view that, on a stand-alone basis, the company's credit quality is
highly intertwined with that of the sovereign. S&P considers that
the government has a high involvement in the company and the
sector, as see in PDVSA's high fiscal contributions to the
government's social programs, which the company increased to about
35% of its revenues in 2012.
VENEZUELA: S&P Lowers Sovereign Credit Ratings to 'B-'
------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its long-term foreign
and local currency sovereign credit ratings on the Bolivarian
Republic of Venezuela to 'B-' from 'B'. The outlook on the long-
term ratings is negative. At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'B'
short-term foreign and local currency sovereign credit ratings on
Venezuela. S&P also lowered its transfer & convertibility (T&C)
assessment on the sovereign to 'B-' from 'B'.
RATIONALE
The downgrade is based on the growing radicalization of economic
policy over the last two months in the context of a sustained
decline in international reserves and the continued high levels of
political polarization. In the run-up to the Dec. 8, 2013,
municipal elections, the government of President Nicolas Maduro
was able to pass in Congress on Nov. 19 a law that delegated
special powers to the president, allowing the executive to govern
by decree over a wide variety of economic matters for a period of
one year. S&P expects President Maduro to rely extensively on
these special powers to increase the public sector's participation
in the economy.
Over the last two months, the government already extended its
control over different sectors of the economy--in particular over
commercial activities--in an attempt to boost its chances in the
municipal elections. The recent political shift overturns an
earlier initiative that had taken place in mid-year to introduce
more pragmatic economic policy--such as a more frequent dialogue
with the private sector and the introduction of more flexibility
in the allocation of foreign exchange. In October, the president
replaced Nelson Merentes, in the important position of vice
president for economic affairs, with Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez.
We believe that this change, along with other political
developments, reduces the likelihood of a more pragmatic approach
to economic policy based on wider consultation with the private
sector. The results of the Dec. 8 municipal elections, in which
the governing party won the consolidated votes by about 6.5
percentage points, will reinforce the trend toward more government
intervention in the private sector, extending macroeconomic
dislocations and further increasing the risks to economic, fiscal,
and external sustainability.
Increasing tension with the opposition and lack of cohesion within
the government's party will continue to hurt the already weak
economic performance. S&P expects GDP to increase modestly by an
average of 1% in real terms between 2013 and 2014. S&P expects
Venezuela's GDP per capita--measured at the official exchange
rate--to reach close to $13,000 at year-end 2013. S&P expects
inflation to reach 50% by year-end 2013 from 20% in 2012, while
the scarcity index increased to 23% as of October 2013, compared
with 17% one year before. International reserves will decrease to
$20 billion at year-end 2013, compared with $29.5 billion in 2012-
-with 80% of the reserves held in gold. The parallel exchange
rate has reached levels several times that of the official one,
reflecting the scarcity of dollars. S&P expects Venezuela's
external liquidity position to continue to deteriorate in the
coming 12 months. S&P expects gross external financing needs to
increase to 95% of current account receipts next year from 85% in
2013 despite the still strong inflows derived from oil exports.
As in the past, the government will still rely on the ability to
devaluate the official exchange rate to improve fiscal prospects
over the short term. S&P believes the chances of a devaluation of
the official exchange rate over the first few months of 2014 have
increased significantly. This action could provide relief to the
government's fiscal accounts in the short term by increasing the
local currency value of dollar-denominated oil revenues. S&P
expects the general government deficit to remain at about 5% of
GDP this year and next. Venezuela's net general government debt
remains at a relatively low 22% of GDP in 2013 (based on the
official exchange rate).
Sharp political polarization, erratic economic policymaking that
exacerbates both the economy's oil dependence and the prevailing
macroeconomic inconsistencies, and weakening external liquidity
remain the main constraints to the ratings on Venezuela.
Growing restrictions on external liquidity as a result of
Petroleos de Venezuela S.A.'s marginally decreasing oil production
and a more uncertain outlook for oil prices will continue to limit
Venezuela's ability to deal with growing domestic political and
economic challenges. The country's vast oil and gas reserves, the
government's relatively low debt burden, and its low level of
external debt continue to support the rating.
OUTLOOK
The negative outlook reflects the possibility that sustained
political polarization and growing economic distortions--in
particular lower international reserves--could increase the risks
of a government debt default over the next two years. S&P's
outlook also reflects the risk that, even if the government
attempts to take adjustment measures (such as a devaluation or
fiscal adjustment), it may not be able to implement them
effectively because of the difficult political environment as a
result of still strong political opposition as well as
disagreements within the government coalitions. S&P could lower
the rating by one notch under such a scenario.
Steps to defuse the heightened political tensions in Venezuela
would reduce the risks of eroding governability and of greater
volatility in economic policies. That, along with a growing track
record of pragmatic economic policies aimed at containing economic
imbalances, could lead us to revise the outlook to stable.
In accordance with S&P's 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.
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.

***********
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
