ISAGEN SA: Presidential Candidate Seeks Sale of Firm's Stake
------------------------------------------------------------
Colombian presidential candidate Antanas Mockus would probably
seek to sell the government's stake in Isagen SA this year as part
of pledges to fund social spending, Heather Walsh at Bloomberg
News reports, citing Astrid Martinez, the Green Party candidate's
adviser on energy policy. The report relates that Mr. Martinez
said that Mr. Mockus may begin the sale process soon after taking
office in August if he wins the election.
Mr. Mockus's statistical tie in the presidential race, former
Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos, would consider whether to
sell the Isagen stake upon taking office, German Cardona, Mr.
Santo's adviser on energy policy, told the news agency in an
interview.
Meanwhile, the report notes Mr. Martinez said that Mr. Mockus
would also seek to sell as much as 15% of Ecopetrol SA "gradually"
over the "medium term."
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
May 18, 2010, Bloomberg News said that Colombia won't sell Isagen
SA while President Alvaro Uribe is in office, allowing the next
government to decide whether to sell its majority share in the
company after taking power in August. The report related that the
government was seeking at least COP3 trillion (US$1.5 billion) for
its 57% stake in Isagen. Colombia will have its presidential
election in May, and the new president will take power on August
7. Dow Jones Newswires said that since the process to approve new
borrowing takes several weeks, the next administration might have
run into trouble if it had to tap the capital markets.
About Isagen SA

energy sector. Its activities comprise the electric power
generation and distribution, as well as the operation of coal,

four months ago, Agence France-Presse reports. Haiti will not

Development Association, the bank's fund for the poorest
countries, the Washington-based institution said in a statement

possible by contributions from 13 member nations. The report
relates that shortly after the massive earthquake in January, the
186-nation World Bank announced it had suspended repayment of the
IDA debt and would seek to cancel it.

President Porfirio Lobo, the government's economic team, as well
as private sector and civil society representatives. Discussions
focused on the economic outlook for 2010 and the macroeconomic
policy response of the government. There was agreement that the
global crisis that erupted in late 2008 together with the
uncertain political situation in Honduras in 2009 had a strong
adverse impact on the economy and further deteriorated the fiscal
and external accounts. In light of this situation, there was a
shared view that corrective policies need to be implemented
urgently to avoid a further deterioration in the fiscal and
balance of payments positions that would delay the return to a
path of sustained economic growth.
"For 2010, economic growth is anticipated to recover to some 2 3/4
percent, while the central bank expects to contain inflation at 6
percent. In the fiscal area, the mission acknowledged the
importance of the tax reform approved in April and recommended its
swift implementation. The authorities agreed that the revenue
gains from this reform need to be complemented with decisive
actions to regain control over public current spending. To this
end, it is key to contain the growing wage bill (which used up
over 90 percent of tax revenue in 2009) and ensure that subsidies
be targeted only to the poor. The mission supported the
authorities' efforts to strengthen the finances of public
enterprises and recommended developing a comprehensive policy to
recover the financial viability of public pension funds. The goal
of the government's fiscal strategy is, in the short term, to
reduce the public sector financing needs for 2010-11, and in the
medium term, to ensure the sustainability of public finances.
"In the monetary area, the mission agreed with the official
inflation projection for 2010, and recommended that the central
bank contains the expansion of liquidity to strengthen foreign
reserves. In the financial sector, the priority should be to
further improve bank supervision to secure the soundness of the
loan portfolio and strengthen financial intermediation. Looking
ahead, the mission supported the authorities' plans to develop a
structural reform agenda that includes greater private sector
participation in infrastructure investment, to improve medium-term
prospects for economic growth and poverty reduction.
"Upon its return to Washington, DC, the mission will present a
staff report to the IMF Executive Board, which will have the
opportunity to give an opinion on the report and conclude the
consultation in July. The report would be published shortly after
the Executive Board meeting."

CEMEX SAB: Citigroup Inc. Upgrades Firm's Shares
------------------------------------------------
Citigroup Inc. analysts upgraded shares of CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V.
from "Sell" to "Buy" and increased their price target from
US$10.00 to US$16.00 on May 28, 2010, according to American
Banking & Market News.
According to the report, the analysts wrote, "We believe financial
performance has bottomed, the early stages of recovery are already
under way, balance sheet risk has been greatly reduced, and the
current share price significantly understates an appropriate
valuation . . . Key risks for Cemex SAB's shares include greater-
than-anticipated weakness in US and European construction activity
and the demand for heavy building materials, risk of price decline
for its products owing to weak demand, a highly leveraged capital
structure, risk of equity dilution, and substantial foreign
currency and interest rate exposure."

* VENEZUELA: To Ban Brokerages From Bolivar Debt Sales
------------------------------------------------------
Venezuela will prohibit brokerages from buying and selling
government debt in bolivars as part of a new capital markets law
to be presented this week, Corina Rodriguez Pons and Daniel Cancel
at Bloomberg News report, citing Ricardo Sanguino, president of
the congressional finance committee. Brokerages will still be
allowed to trade in commercial debt and company stock, Mr.
Sanguino told Bloomberg in a phone interview. "The bill will try
to limit brokerages to operations with commercial paper and stock
from the private sector and remove them from debt operations
issued by the government," the report quoted Mr. Sanguino as
saying.
According to the report, President Hugo Chavez is tightening
regulation of the financial industry after blaming currency
speculators for weakening the bolivar in the unregulated market
this year and a surge in consumer prices. The report relates
President Chavez said that brokerages are unnecessary in a
socialist state and "private capitalists" still control the
majority of economic power in the country.
The government, the report notes, moved to dismantle the parallel
currency market after the bolivar plunged 26% this year to a
record low of 8.2 per dollar on May 11. President Chavez, the
report relates, devalued the bolivar on January 8 and created a
multi-tiered exchange system in a bid to slow capital flight and
to close a budget deficit.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
May 26, 2010, the Associated Press said that Venezuelan
authorities raided about 18 brokerage firms and arrested five
executives.

According to Moody's Investors Service, Venezuela continues to
carry a B2 foreign currency rating and a B1 local currency rating
with stable 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
