ANTIGUA & BARBUDA: Debt Should Worry OECS
-----------------------------------------
The Daily Observer reports that Trinidadian economist Patrick
Watson said he is astounded by the silence of the eight other OECS
member states in the face of Antigua and Barbuda's impending
EC$450 million funding deficit.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne announced that this year the country
would rack up its largest debt ever in efforts to help tackle some
of the country's financial issues, according to the Daily
Observer.
The report notes that Mr. Watson said he was shocked that the
announcement had not raised the ire of other regional governments.
"Given that you operate under one Central Bank and the pressure is
going to be put all around, not just on Antigua & Barbuda, I
cannot understand how they have not intervened to impose some sort
of fiscal discipline," the report quoted Mr. Watson as saying.
The report relates that any deficit, particularly a relatively
large one like the one Antigua & Barbuda threatens to incur, would
put pressure on the EC currency and could threaten its value.
"To the extent that this is more based on the current expenditure,
there is a pressure that is going to be put on the foreign
exchange reserves of Antigua & Barbuda and to the extent that that
is linked to the rest of the OECS.," Mr. Watson said, the report
relays.
The report says that Mr. Watson noted that the most important
factor going forward would be how the government spends the
borrowed funds. Mr. Watson said it would best be spent on valid
capital projects that would increase national productivity, the
report relays.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
September 23, 2014, The Daily Observer said that Antigua & Barbuda
could soon find itself in the company of Japan, Zimbabwe, and
Greece, the countries with the highest national debts.
In the January 2014 budget presentation, the former administration
indicated that the nation's debt was 87 per cent of GDP, according
to The Daily Observer. However, Prime Minister Gaston Browne has
disputed the figure, deeming it to be as high as 130 per cent, the
report noted.
Minister Browne said while his government's increased borrowing is
pushing up the nation's debt-to-GDP ratio, it is necessary to
solve the country's problems, the report related

MEGAINVER RENTA: Moody's Puts B-bf Global Scale Bond Fund Rating
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Latin America has assigned bond fund ratings to Megainver
Renta Mixta FCI, a newly launched fund that will be managed by
Megainver SGFCI SA. The ratings assigned are as follows:
- global scale bond fund rating: B-bf
- national scale bond fund rating: A-bf.ar
Ratings Rationale
"The fund ratings are based on Moody's expectation that Megainver
Renta Mixta FCI will maintain over 70% of its portfolio in B1 to
B3 rated securities, such as corporate bonds, local treasury bills
and mutual funds. The remainder of the fund's asset allocation is
expected to be in consumer loan and credit card ABS and sub-
sovereign bonds. The portfolio will seek to provide a return on
par with the relevant interest rate in the local market and
maintain an average duration of three years or less," said Moody's
lead analyst Carlos de Nevares.
The new fund expects key shareholders to be institutional
investors such as local insurance companies, many of which are
already important clients for Megainver.
The principal methodology used in this rating was Moody's Bond
Fund Rating Methodology published in May 2013.
Megainver SGFCI SA, is a medium-sized asset manager with a 2.8% of
market share, and which has been operating in the Argentinean
mutual fund sector for over two years. As of December 2014,
Megainver SGFCI SA managed approximately AR$3,299 million in
assets.

HOME LOAN: S&P Revises Outlook to Neg. & Affirms 'B+' ICR
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its outlook on Cayman
Island-based Home Loan Servicing Solutions Ltd. (HLSS) to negative
from stable. At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'B+' issuer
credit and senior secured ratings on HLSS.
"The negative outlook follows news that the California Department
of Business Oversight (DBO) filed an accusation in October 2014
against HLSS' sole subservicer, Ocwen Loan Servicing LLC, seeking
the suspension of Ocwen's residential mortgage lender and loan
servicer license for a period of up to 12 months for failure to
timely provide borrower records and documents to the department,"
said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Stephen Lynch. As of Sept.
30, 2014, HLSS had a servicing portfolio with $165.5 billion of
mortgage assets valued on its balance sheet at $619 million. HLSS
did not disclose how much of its portfolio is in California, but
S&P believes it should be about the same as Ocwen's exposure,
which is 23%.
Under HLSS' purchase and subservicing agreements with Ocwen, HLSS
is permitted to cancel and reassign its subservicing contract if
the subservicer loses its state licenses. If a new subservicer
was assigned, S&P believes that HLSS would likely have to
renegotiate a new subservicing contract and that the base and
incentive fee paid to the new subservicer could be substantially
more than what HLSS is currently paying to Ocwen. A new contract
could therefore lead to lower realized earnings on HLSS' rights to
mortgage servicing rights (RMSRs). S&P is uncertain, however,
whether HLSS would experience impairments to the RMSRs on its
balance sheet since HLSS currently values RMSRs using third-party
subservicing cost assumptions and not the actual subservicing cost
it incurs with Ocwen.
As noted in the news release S&P published on Jan. 13, Ocwen has
indicated that it sent the DBO additional documentation in
December 2014 and is hopeful that such information will satisfy
the DBO's previous request. If so, the matter could effectively
be dropped, according to Ocwen. If not, Ocwen will try to reach a
settlement--in a process that could continue until at least July
2015, according to Ocwen. However, S&P could take a negative
rating action on HLSS before July if S&P believes the relationship
with Ocwen and the California DBO further deteriorates and makes
the probability of a settlement less likely.
S&P's rating on HLSS reflects the company's narrow focus, reliance
on Ocwen, short operating history, and uncertain long-term
strategy. The company's low leverage and stable profitability are
positive rating factors.
The negative outlook is based on the risk that the company's sole
subservicer, Ocwen, could lose the right to servicing mortgages in
California--HLSS' largest state exposure. The negative outlook
also reflects Ocwen's broader regulatory challenges.
S&P would likely lower its rating on the company if Ocwen loses
its license to service loans in California, if HLSS makes
substantial impairments to its MSR portfolio, or if a reduction in
its servicing assets leads to quarterly losses.
An upgrade is unlikely until management establishes a longer track
record, slows its rate of growth, diversifies its revenue mix, and
reduces its dependence on Ocwen.

CI GOLDEX: CEO Hunted in $970 Million Colombia Laundering Case
--------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew Bristow and Andrew Willis at Bloomberg News report that
John Hernandez built a billion-dollar gold-trading business from
scratch in 13 years, connecting panners in Colombia's jungles and
mountains with buyers in the U.S. Now he's the target of a
manhunt.
Colombia's Attorney General's office alleges that Hernandez' CI
Goldex SA is at the center of a $970 million money-laundering
scheme, which they say is the biggest in the country's history,
according to Bloomberg News. Prosecutors detained 19 people in
connection with case in Colombia and are trying to track down
Hernandez and six others, said Luz Angela Bahamon, who headed the
investigation, Bloomberg News notes.
Bloomberg News relates that Colombia's cocaine traffickers,
Marxist guerrillas and others launder about $10 billion a year,
equivalent to about 3 percent of gross domestic product, according
to the government's financial intelligence unit. The money is
channeled into restaurants, construction, agriculture and other
legitimate businesses.
Colombian authorities spent three years investigating Goldex, once
the nation's second-biggest gold exporter. In a September
interview in his fortified gold foundry in Medellin, Mr. Hernandez
said he had done nothing wrong, and that he had been reduced to
transporting bullion in a suitcase as banks and transporters cut
their ties with him, Bloomberg News discloses.
Homeless Buyers
Bloomberg News relates that about 90 percent of the people listed
as selling gold to Goldex had no connection whatever with mining,
the Finance Ministry said in a statement. Some of the people
listed as Goldex's suppliers were dead, others were homeless, and
some of the companies existed in name only, the ministry said,
Bloomberg News relays.
After Brink's Co. and other security firms canceled contracts in
July, Mr. Hernandez and his wife began flying to Asia with gold in
their luggage, presenting the export papers to customs officials
themselves, he said, Bloomberg News relates.
In e-mailed responses to questions in May, the company said it
collaborated with investigators to show that all its exports were
legitimate and it had had no contact with any illegal groups, the
report says.
"Just as Colombia has fought drug trafficking, it's important to
fight this other kind of terrorism, money laundering," Finance
Minister Mauricio Cardenas said in a post on Twitter, Bloomberg
News notes. "With the 2.3 trillion pesos Goldex laundered, we
could have built 55,000 houses," Mr. Cardenas added.
Bloomberg News relates that Colombia's Mining Association
estimates that formal gold mining accounts for less than 15
percent of total production, with illegal mining and contraband
making up most of the rest. The country produced 56 metric tons
of the metal in 2013, of which the Andean nation's two main
regulated gold-mining companies produced just 6.7 tons between
them, Bloomberg News notes.
Drug Violence
Illegal gold mining in Colombia is a key source of revenue for
Colombia's largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of
Colombia, or FARC, according to the rural police, Bloomberg News
discloses.
In addition, as much as $3.3 billion of the precious metal was
smuggled into Colombia over two years from countries including
Venezuela, Panama, Mexico and Chile, according to estimates made
in May by the country's tax and customs agency, Bloomberg News
says.
As well as implementing programs to regulate the informal mining
sector, the government is in talks with the FARC in Havana in a
bid to end the country's five-decade civil war, Bloomberg News
notes. All minerals must have a certificate of origin under
Colombia's mining code.
When he spoke in September, Mr. Hernandez said he was being
unfairly persecuted and said he was uncertain about his future,
Bloomberg News discloses. "I've no motivation to stay in the
Colombian gold market," Bloomberg News quoted Mr. Hernandez as
saying. "I'm tired by so much struggle," Mr. Hernandez added.
PACIFIC RUBIALES: S&P Puts 'BB+' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services placed its 'BB+' corporate
credit and issue ratings on Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. on
CreditWatch with negative implications.
The CreditWatch placement reflects S&P's view that the company's
financial metrics will deteriorate as a result of weaker oil
prices, which could lead to reassessment of the company's
financial risk profile. On Jan. 9, 2015, Standard & Poor's
lowered its assumptions for Brent crude oil price to $55 per
barrel from $70 and WTI to $50 per barrel from $65 during 2015.
Additionally, S&P believes that the company's production will be
pressured because Pacific Rubiales has recently announced a
reduction in its capital expenditures plans for 2015.
S&P deems that the company has significant mitigating factors that
will help it shield from the currently lower oil prices, such as
the ability to significantly reduce capital expenditures, a
manageable debt maturity profile, and sizable undrawn committed
facilities for about $1 billion. However, persistently low oil
prices will undermine Pacific Rubiales' main cash-flow leverage
metrics, weakening its financial risk profile. In addition, the
lower capital expenditures would shrink production levels,
hindering the replacement of the production from the Rubiales
field that expires in 2016.
CREDITWATCH
S&P expects to resolve the CreditWatch listing within the next 30
days by assessing the company's revised capital expenditures and
other plans to address the lower cash flows amid weaker oil prices
and their impact on production. S&P could downgrade Pacific
Rubiales by one notch if the company's leverage is more than 3.0x
and/or its funds from operations to debt is less than 30% in 2015
or if oil prices remain below S&P's current 2015 average price
assumption.

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: Yearned Energy Pact Talks Finally Announced
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dominican Today reports that ending months of expectation and
speculation, the head of Dominican Republic's State-owned electric
utility (CDEEE) said everything's ready to start the talks leading
to a national pact on energy, during a formal ceremony Jan. 19.
Ruben Jimenez Bichara said consultations are being conducted and a
document prepared with the terms of procedure, and stressed the
agreement's fundamental importance on the coal-fired plants
because their construction will conclude sooner, according to
Dominican Today.
The report notes that Mr. Bichara placed the current cost of the
coal plant project's at US$600 million.
When asked if the savings from the falling oil prices should be
applied to the electricity bill, Jimenez Bichara said the CDEEE
favors procedures to reflect the ups and downs on crude, but noted
that it's an issue for the Electricity Superintendence, the report
relates.

JAMAICA: EPOC Chair Believes Country Will Pass Next IMF Test
------------------------------------------------------------
RJR News reports that Jamaica Co-Chair of the Economic Program
Oversight Committee (EPOC), Richard Byles, is expressing
confidence that Jamaica will pass the seventh consecutive
International Monetary Fund (IMF) quarterly test.
This follows similar sentiments expressed by Finance Minister, Dr.
Peter Phillips, at a function in Montego Bay, according to RJR
News.
The report notes that addressing journalists at EPOC's monthly
press briefing in the capital, Mr. Byles reiterated that the
country has successfully met and surpassed all targets for
November under its Extended Fund Facility with the IMF.
The report discloses that Mr. Byles said this positions Jamaica to
meet the seventh quarterly IMF test.
A review of the performance is currently underway.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
Sept. 23, 2014, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its
'B-' long-term foreign and local currency and 'B' short-term
foreign and local currency sovereign credit ratings on Jamaica.
At the same time, S&P revised the outlook on the long-term
sovereign credit ratings to positive from stable. In addition,
S&P affirmed its 'B' transfer and convertibility (T&C) assessment.

CEMEX S.A.B.: S&P Revises Outlook to Pos. & Affirms 'B+' Rating
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its outlook on CEMEX
S.A.B. de C.V. (CEMEX) to positive from stable. At the same time,
S&P affirmed its 'B+' global scale and 'mxBBB' national scale
ratings on CEMEX and its subsidiaries, CEMEX Espana S.A., CEMEX
Mexico S.A. de C.V., and CEMEX Inc. S&P is keeping its recovery
rating at '3', which indicates that bondholders can expect a
meaningful (50% to 70%) recovery in the event of a payment
default.
"The outlook revision reflects our view that CEMEX has the
capacity to capitalize on the positive industry momentum in its
key markets, which could improve credit metrics in the next 12
months closer to an aggressive financial risk profile," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Luis Manuel Martinez. In S&P's
view, a sustained recovery and positive economic growth prospects
in the U.S. market, and expected increased public-sector spending
in Mexico, amid mid-term elections in 2015, and the development of
key infrastructure projects throughout Latin America will support
top-line growth. Additionally, S&P expects CEMEX to maintain its
cost discipline and raise capacity utilization, which could
gradually increase operating margins and boost cash flow
generation. S&P also expects the company to engage in active
liability management to further extend its debt maturity profile
and reduce its borrowing costs. The rating action incorporates a
revision to S&P's treatment of "surplus cash" (as defined in S&P's
criteria), which, in particular, will have a positive effect on
the company's leverage metrics.

PETROTRIN: No Job Cuts at Firm Despite Falling Oil Prices
---------------------------------------------------------
Carolyn Kissoon at Trinidad Express reports that the effect of
falling oil prices is costing workers in the industry their jobs,
with thousands being laid off by international energy and energy
service companies.
However, permanent employees at State-owned Petroleum Company of
Trinidad and Tobago will not be affected by any job cuts, company
president Khalid Hassanali said, according to Trinidad Express.
The report notes that Mr. Hassanali was responding to a decision
by Schlumberger, the world's biggest oilfield services company, to
reduce its employment by eight per cent as the company tackles
falling global oil prices.
"We are not reducing our permanent manpower at this time," he
stated in a text message, the report relays.
The report discloses that Mr. Hassanali predicted that Petrotrin
could lose 40 to 50 per cent in revenue as a result of falling oil
prices. Mr. Hassanali said the company had readjusted its budget
and will slash drilling and development programs, the report
relays.
The report notes that Mr. Hassanali said the down cycle would help
optimize and restructure the company for when oil prices begin to
rise.
Earlier last week, Oilfields Workers Trade Union (OWTU) President
General Ancel Roget said the trade union would not allow Petrotrin
workers to end up on the breadline, the report adds.
About Petrotrin
Petroleum Company of Trinidad and Tobago is the major state-owned
oil company in Trinidad and Tobago. The company was established
in 1993 by the merger of Trintopec and Trintoc, two state-owned
oil companies. Petrotrin's main holdings are extensive, mature
onshore fields located across southern Trinidad. Large areas
have been leased out to small private producers who are able to
make a profit on wells that are unprofitable for Petrotrin,
giving it higher labor costs. The company operates a refinery at
Pointe-Pierre, just north of San Fernando in south Trinidad.
Most crude petroleum produced in Trinidad is exported without
being refined. The refinery depends on imported crude (mostly
from Venezuela), which is either used domestically or exported.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on Dec.
2, 2014, Trinidad and Tobago Newsday said that in the face of
falling global oil prices, which is beginning to impact on
Trinidad and Tobago's earnings from its petroleum resources,
Petroleum Company of Trinidad and Tobago has rolled out a plan to
remain viable and to survive in the harsh global oil industry.
Petrotrin said in a media release that it is forging ahead with
objective cost management decisions imperative to secure its
viability, according to Trinidad and Tobago Newsday. The report
said Petrotrin's operations have also been severely impacted due
to unfavorable margins.
The TCRLA reported on Jan. 21, 2014 that Trinidad Express, citing
Energy Minister Kevin Ramnarine, said Petrotrin will make a loss
for its 2013 financial year. According to Mr. Ramnarine,
Petrotrin was scheduled to make the loss even before the series of
oil spills affecting Trinidad's southwestern peninsula since
December, reports Trinidad Express.

VENEZUELA: Oil Falls Below $40 a Barrel
---------------------------------------
EFE News reports that the average price of Venezuela's crude
basket fell $3.25 last week to $39.19, continuing the downward
trend that led President Nicolas Maduro to visit petroleum-
producing countries and lobby for his plan to reverse the decline.
"Crude prices [last] week continued to fall due to the outlook for
a slowdown in global demand and signs of abundant supply of crude
in the main consumer centers," Venezuela's Oil and Mining Ministry
said in its weekly report, according to EFE News.
VENEZUELA GLOBAL: Moody's Lowers Ratings on 4 Receipts to Caa3
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service announced that it has downgraded the
ratings on the following receipts issued by Venezuela Global Bond
Programme:
Venezuela Global Bond Coupon Depositary Receipts, Downgraded to
Caa3 (sf); previously on December 19, 2013 Downgraded to Caa1 (sf)
Venezuela Global Bond Coupon Strip Depositary Receipts, Downgraded
to Caa3 (sf); previously on December 19, 2013 Downgraded to Caa1
(sf)
Venezuela Global Bond Long Term Coupon Receipts, Downgraded to
Caa3 (sf); previously on December 19, 2013 Downgraded to Caa1 (sf)
Venezuela Global Bond Principal Depositary Receipts, Downgraded to
Caa3 (sf); previously on December 19, 2013 Downgraded to Caa1 (sf)
Ratings Rationale
These depository receipts are structured notes whose ratings are
based on the rating of the Underlying Securities and the legal
structure of the transaction. The rating action is a result of the
change in the rating of the Underlying Securities, Republic of
Venezuela 9.25% U.S. Dollar-Denominated Unsecured Global Bonds due
2027, whose Caa1 rating was downgraded to Caa3 as of January 13,
2015.
Methodology Underlying the Rating Action
The principal methodology used in this rating was "Moody's
Approach to Rating Repackaged Securities" published in December
2014.
Factors that would lead to an upgrade or downgrade of the rating:
Moody's says that the underlying securities are subject to a high
level of macroeconomic uncertainty in the Republic of Venezuela,
which manifest in uncertain credit conditions across the general
economy. Because these conditions could negatively affect the
ratings on the underlying securities, they could also negatively
impact the rating on the depository receipts.

***********
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.
Submissions about insolvency-related conferences are encouraged.
