KERZNER INTERNATIONAL: Creditors Take Control of Atlantis Resort
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kris Hudson at Minneapolis Star Tribune reports that Resort
operator Kerzner International Holdings Ltd. completed a long-
awaited restructuring that transferred its massive Atlantis resort
in the Bahamas to its creditors and sold its half interest in the
Atlantis in Dubai to partner Istithmar World PJSC.

The deal leaves South African casino magnate Sol Kerzner's company
as mostly a manager of resorts that it doesn't own, including the
one in the Bahamas and Dubai, according to Minneapolis Star
Tribune.   The report relates that Kerzner International used its
$250 million in proceeds from the sale of its Atlantis Dubai stake
to pay down part of its US$400 million of corporate debt.

Minneapolis Star Tribune notes that the catalyst for the
restructuring came more than a year ago, when Kerzner
International executives realized that they couldn't refinance
US$2.5 billion of debt tied to the Atlantis in the Bahamas that
was approaching maturity.  By the time it came due last September,
Kerzner was in talks to forfeit the resort to its junior-most
creditor, Brookfield Asset Management Inc., the report relays.

However, Minneapolis Star Tribune says other creditors
subsequently sued for better terms, causing Brookfield to revise
the deal.  The report relates that the revised agreement with
Brookfield includes modifications for the dissenting creditors but
still puts Brookfield in control of Atlantis.

Minneapolis Star Tribune discloses that Brookfield, in turn, has
converted its $175 million slice of Kerzner International's debt
into equity.  The report notes that holders of the resort's
remaining US$2.3 billion of debt have agreed to push the due date
to September 2014. Brookfield intends to refinance the debt by
then.

Meanwhile, the report discloses that Kerzner International will
continue to manage the resort under a new contract of up to six
years.

Minneapolis Star Tribune relays that Jonathan Mayblum, a co-
founder of Arcturus Group who advised the dissenting creditors,
Canyon Capital and Trilogy Capital, said the negotiations were
complicated because dozens of creditors hold pieces of Kerzner
International's debt.  The new deal "allows every stakeholder to
achieve its goals, despite very differing interests," Mr. Mayblum
said in an interview, Minneapolis Star Tribune notes.

Meanwhile, Minneapolis Star Tribune discloses that Kerzner
International sold its 50% stake in the Atlantis The Palm resort
in Dubai to Istithmar World, an investment arm of the Arab
emirate.

The Atlantis in the Bahamas, built in 1998, is among the busiest
resorts in North America, spanning 2,317 rooms, a casino,
conference rooms, shops, a spa, a 40-acre water park and a dolphin
habitat.

Kerzner International is the owner of several luxury getaways.
The Atlantis resort in the Bahamas, Kerzner's flagship property,
is one of the most popular resorts in North America.

BANCO GANADERO: Moody's Affirms 'E+' Bank Finc'l Strength Rating
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed all ratings assigned to Banco
Ganadero S.A., including the E+ bank financial strength rating, as
well as its long- and short-term global local currency deposit
ratings of B1/Not Prime, and its long- and short-term global
foreign currency deposit ratings of B2/Not Prime. In addition, the
local currency Aa2.bo and the foreign currency Aa3.bo deposit
ratings in the Bolivian national scale were affirmed, as were the
bank's B2/Aa3.bo debt ratings on a global and national scale
basis, respectively.

All ratings have a stable outlook, with the exception of the B2
foreign currency deposit rating, which has a positive outlook, in
line with the positive outlook on Bolivia's foreign currency
deposit ratings.

The following ratings of Banco Ganadero S.A. were affirmed:

Bank Financial Strength Rating: E+

Global Local Currency Deposit Rating: B1/Not Prime, stable
outlook.

Long-term Global Foreign Currency Deposit Rating: B2, positive
outlook

Long-term Global Foreign Currency Subordinated Debt Rating: B2,
stable outlook

Short-term Global Foreign Currency Deposit Rating: Not Prime,
stable outlook

Local Currency National Scale Deposit Rating: Aa2.bo, stable
outlook

Foreign Currency National Scale Deposit Rating: Aa3.bo, stable
outlook

Foreign Currency National Scale Debt Rating: Aa3.bo, stable
outlook

Rating Rationale

In affirming the ratings of Banco Ganadero, Moody's noted its
established regional business franchise in Santa Cruz de la
Sierra, as reflected in its position as the 4th largest bank in
the region, with a focus on commercial lending to small and medium
size companies (SME), and mortgages, although operations are
modest relative to those of the much larger national banks. The
rating action also incorporates Ganadero's improving asset quality
and reasonably stable profitability, in the context of solid loan
growth, which, however, are challenged by an environment of
increasing competition and low interest rates.

Moody's noted that Ganadero's robust loan growth over the past
three years, at an average 16% annual rate, helped boost its
earnings generation as well as operating efficiency, despite the
negative effect of declining interest rates and more competitive
market conditions on margins. Ganadero's funding base, which is
predominantly composed of core and inexpensive deposits sourced in
the region, as well as increasing non-financial revenues should
partially offset the pressure on spreads as a result of the
ongoing fierce competition.

Ganadero's ratings take into account the sizable exposures to the
mortgage business and to SMEs, which combined account for about
54% of the total loan portfolio. Those segments have experienced
substantial growth in Bolivia in the past years and thus pose
higher credit risks as loans season. Moody's views as positive
management's tightening of loan origination policies and larger
reserves to limit that risk, particularly because of Bolivia's
relatively unstable operating environment and the competitive
pressures that may have negative effects on credit metrics.
Nonetheless, Ganadero's Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% in December
2011 remains low relative to the industry's average. The growth of
its capital levels will be critical to fostering Ganadero's
business expansion going forward, as well as to cushion against
unexpected credit losses, said Moody's.

Continuous reduction in the dollarization level of its balance
sheet and a disciplined growth of its loan book positively
portrays management's conservative approach. Although the bank's
largest loan exposures and credit concentration remain high, and
skewed towards agribusiness, the bank's SME growth focus should
gradually increase the granularity of its loan portfolio.

Ganadero's B1 long-term local currency (GLC) deposits rating is
derived from its b1 baseline credit assessment, and incorporates
Moody's assessment of low probability of systemic support in a
crisis.

Banco Ganadero S.A. is located in Santa Cruz de la Sierra,
Bolivia, and has US$693 million in assets US$418 million in
credits, US$559 million in deposits and US$45 million in equity as
of December 2011.

JAMALCO: PM Simpson Miller Hold Talks With Alcoa Executives
-----------------------------------------------------------
RJR News reports that Jamaica Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller
held talks with senior executives of Alcoa on the company's
bauxite/alumina operations in Jamaica.

The talks described by the Prime Minister as 'fruitful' ended with
Alcoa expressing satisfaction that "a path had been established
for the future viability of the company's operations in Jamaica,"
according to RJR News.  The report relates that Alcoa and the
government, through the company Jamalco, mines bauxite and refine
it into alumina at its operations in Clarendon.

                          About JAMALCO

JAMALCO (Alcoa Minerals of Jamaica) is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Alcoa.  JAMALCO mines bauxite and refines it into alumina
before exporting the alumina from its port at Rocky Point,
Clarendon.

                          *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
April 13, 2009, Radio Jamaica News said Alcoa plans to cut
13,500 jobs or 13% of the work force in Jamaica, because of the
global slowdown.  Alcoa is also selling four business units and
reducing output to save money, the report noted.  Caribbean Net
News said the government is holding talks with potential
purchasers for its 45% stake in the Jamalco refinery in south-
central parish of Clarendon.  Aluminum giant Alcoa holds 55% of
the company, which has a production capacity of 1.4 million tons
of alumina.

FUCEREP: Fitch Affirms Issuer Default Ratings at 'B'
----------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed FUCEREP's - Cooperativa de Ahorro y
Credito ratings as follows:

  -- Foreign and local currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at
     'B'; Outlook Stable

  -- National long-term rating at 'BB+(uy)'; Outlook Positive;

  -- Support rating at '5';

  -- Support Rating Floor at 'NF'.

Fitch revised the Rating Outlook on FUCEREP's National Long-term
rating to Positive from Stable given the positive trends in
operating performance and business volume.  Fitch expects that
sustained improvement in FUCEREP's performance, underpinned by
loan portfolio growth in the context of appropriate asset quality
and solvency ratios, could lead to an upgrade in FUCEREP's
National Long-term rating.

Strong capitalization ratios, adequate liquidity, appropriate
asset quality and reasonable performance support FUCEREP's
ratings.  Nevertheless, FUCEREP's ratings remained constrained by
its small size, weak efficiency and low diversification by
business line and by geographical region.

FUCEREP's performance is supported by its strong net interest
income and adequate asset quality.  Although investment in
management systems, human resources, and marketing pressured
FUCEREP's operating profit for the last three fiscal years, the
company's performance should improve in the short term underpinned
by future loan growth and a decelerating increase in expenses.

Credit risk is the issuer's main challenge. Asset quality ratios
have consistently improved since 2007 due to more conservative
lending policies and the favourable economic cycle.  FUCEREP's
past-due loan/total loan ratio reached a 5.94% at year-end 2011.
Although this level is higher than the financial system's average
of 2.4%, it is adequate considering the segments served by FUCEREP
and the ample reserves cushion (156.3%). However, Fitch believes
there are margins for improvement in the medium term.

The loan portfolio has no significant concentration by amount with
the largest 10 obligors accounting for 5.5% of the total loan
portfolio.  However, the portfolio is concentrated by product,
with consumer/retail loans accounting for 82.2% of FUCEREP's total
loans to non-financial sector, although these loans are
diversified by economic activity.

Resident deposits are the entity's main source of funding, in
particular its savings product FONAE (45% of liabilities) and
term deposits (52.6%).  However, FUCEREP's deposit base is
concentrated, as the 10 largest depositors accounted for 16.9% of
total deposits.  Liquidity is adequate.

FUCEREP's capitalisation is strong relative to peers'.  Fitch
expects the Fitch Core Capital Ratio to decline in the medium term
according to the expected increase in FUCEREP's risk weighted
assets.  Nevertheless, this ratio will likely remain high given
the entity's improving financial performance and higher partner
base.

BANQUE HERITAGE: Moody's Assigns 'E+' Bank Finc'l Strength Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a bank financial strength
rating (BFSR) of E+ to Banque Heritage (Uruguay) S.A. Moody's also
assigned long- and short-term global local and foreign currency
deposit ratings of B3/Not Prime. At the same time, Moody's Latin
America assigned an Baa3.uy local and foreign currency deposit
ratings in national scale. The outlook on all ratings is stable.

The following ratings were assigned:

Bank Financial Strength Rating: E+, stable outlook

Global Local Currency Deposits, long term: B3/Not Prime, stable
outlook

Global Foreign Currency deposits, long term: B3/Not Prime, stable
outlook

National Scale Rating Local Currency Deposit Rating: Baa3.uy

National Scale Rating Foreign Currency Deposit Rating: Baa3.uy

Rating Rationale

Moody's ratings for Banque Heritage incorporate its modest
business franchise in the Uruguayan banking system and still weak
earnings generation, which reflect its developing operations as a
private bank and asset manager, as well as modest business
volumes. The ratings also capture the bank's adequate
capitalization, as well as its business and risk management
practices that are aligned to those of its ultimate parent, Banque
Heritage of Switzerland, which has owned 100% of the Uruguayan
subsidiary since July 2010.

Heritage targets chiefly non-resident clients, which comprise most
of its depositor base, with its business being primarily focused
on fee-based earnings from private banking services, investments,
and asset management. More recently, Heritage has built a small
corporate loan book, which has added to its still small revenue
base. The bank's assets and liabilities are highly dollarized, a
profile that is in line with that of other Uruguayan banks, but
which fits its predominantly non-resident business strategy.

However, Moody's noted that as a start up, the bank's earnings
have been limited and volatile, and largely absorbed by still high
operating expenses. Moody's acknowlegdes that revenues from fees
and loans have improved over the last quarters as the franchise
develops and business grows, and losses, therefore, are declining.
To that effect, management expects the bank to achieve breakeven
by 2013, in line with its business plan. The ratings, therefore,
incorporate the challenges Heritage faces to prove its ability to
generate recurrent profits, within the country's highly
competitive banking environment.

Sustainable growth and improvements in Heritage's earnings and
business volume generation could trigger upward ratings pressure.
However, recurrent losses that erode the banks' capital as a
result of poor business dynamics and unfavorable competition could
have negative rating implications. Because of its niche operation
and target market, Heritage's small loan book has an adequate
granularity, which is positive for its financial strength.
Nevertheless, further leveraging of the balance sheet that could
reduce capital and threaten asset quality could also be negative
for the ratings.

Moody's B3 global local-currency deposit rating is derived from
Heritage's unsupported baseline credit assessment of b3. Because
Moody's assesses a low probability of systemic support as a
consequence of its very modest market share in terms of deposits,
the bank's deposit rating does not benefit from any systemic
uplift.

As of December 2011, Banque Heritage (Uruguay) was the tenth
private bank among the Uruguayan banking system with Ur$3 billion
in assets, Ur$2.6 billion in deposits, and Ur$405 million in
shareholders' equity.


NUEVO BANCO: Fitch Assigns Viability Rating at 'bb-'
----------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Nuevo Banco Comercial's (NBC) ratings
as listed at the end of this release.  Concurrently Fitch has
revised the Rating Outlook on its foreign and local currency long-
term Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) to Positive from Stable
following the same rating action on Uruguay's sovereign ratings
announced by Fitch on April 24, 2012.  In addition, Fitch has
assigned NBC a Viability Rating (VR) of 'bb-'.

NBC's IDRs are constrained by the sovereign ratings, thus any
further rating actions will mirror any rating action on the
sovereign.  The bank's foreign currency IDR is at the country
ceiling, while its local currency IDR is two notches above that of
the Uruguayan sovereign.  NBC's ratings reflect the potential
support from the Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank; Fitch IDR of
'AA-'), which held 72% of the bank's equity at Feb. 28, 2012.  The
Uruguayan government owns the remaining 28% in the form of
preferred stock with no voting rights over which there is a
repurchase plan under way.

NBC's Viability ratings reflect its strong national franchise,
good asset quality, high liquidity, adequate capitalization levels
and its low profitability.

NBC suffered a net loss in 2011, mainly as a result of lower
results from its securities portfolio, foreign exchange losses and
extraordinary administrative expenses and charges related to the
core system implemented in 2010 and to the integration of NBC into
Scotiabank.  These were partly offset by higher operating
revenues, fuelled by loan growth, and by the fact that the
inflation adjustment was not required in 2011.  Fitch expects
NBC's operating performance to improve in line with the expected
increase in lending volumes, higher commission income and
improvements in cost efficiency.

In addition, Scotiabank's policy to centrally hedge the foreign
exchange positions stemming from its investment in subsidiaries
enabled NBC to close its historically open USD position and this
will mean lower volatility on its income statement.

NBC's asset quality is good and its ratios have improved. Only
2.96% of the loan book is past-due (60 days or more overdue, under
local definitions).  Loan loss reserves covered 7.22% of total
loans and 243.61% of past-due loans at Dec. 31, 2011, which is
considered ample.

NBC's funding is mainly through deposits; liquidity continues to
be high, with liquid assets representing 43.3% of deposits and
short-term funds.

NBC's capitalization has decreased because Fitch has deducted the
preference shares held by the Central Bank of Uruguay from the
bank's equity due to the repurchase program in 2014.  Should
Scotiabank keep part of the bank's preference shares, Fitch will
continue to consider them as part of the bank's capital if they
meet the requirements set in its methodology 'Treatment of Hybrids
in Bank Capital Analysis,' published on July 11, 2011.

Assuming the repurchase and amortization of the total preference
shares, the bank's equity would represent 6.54% of assets and its
Fitch Core Capital (FCC) ratio would be 9.06% at Dec. 31, 2011.
Fitch considers this level of FCC to be adequate but will monitor
its evolution in the context of the bank's aggressive expansion
plan. However, Fitch is confident that Scotiabank will take the
necessary measures to support the bank's capital adequacy.

NBC is the fourth-largest private sector bank in Uruguay and its
market presence is significant in all segments.

Fitch has affirmed NBC's ratings as follows:

  -- Foreign currency IDR at 'BBB';
  -- Local currency IDR at 'BBB+';
  -- National long-term rating at 'AAA(uy)';
  -- Support rating at '2'.

Fitch has assigned the following rating:

  -- VR of 'bb-'.

The Rating Outlook on the IDRs is revised to Positive from Stable,
the same as on the sovereign's IDRs, and the Outlook on the
National long-term rating remains Stable.

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
