SiLAS 2010: Securitization and Structured Finance in Latin America
Ritz Carlton
Coconut Grove, Miami, Florida
May 20th & 21st, 2010
 
 

The securitization and structured finance market in Latin America has shown remarkable resilience during the financial crisis. Economic crises are not new to the region, meaning business professionals and politicians alike have handled this rockier time for the entire globe with a long-term view and level headedness that has made the region, now post-crisis, more appealing than ever.

Opportunities in securitization and structured finance are now again presenting themselves. There has been some consolidation, notably in Mexican RMBS and CMBS. However, this void has been filled by larger bank issuances, along with new originations in other sectors such as export receivables, infrastructure, energy, auto loans, and consumer loans.

The Brazilian market is hotter than ever before, whilst the smaller markets of Peru and Colombia have proven robust during the crisis, and now present potential for an enhanced long-term pipeline of deals.

Remarkable appetite in the domestic markets has continued, whilst a majority of cross-border deals executed pre-crisis have stood the test of time, making the sector increasingly appealing for selective investors, looking to diversify their portfolio.

Securitization will grow significantly in Brazil and it’s the right answer to increase the Country’s mortgage market from 2.8% of Brazilian GDP to 10% in a few years. SiLAS will help professionals to discuss the alternatives and the improvement of the culture of safe Latin American securitization.

 With the markets re-opening to structured finance, SiLAS is sure to have the important impace that it had in years past.
