Since 2002 SiLAS (Securitization and Structured Finance in Latin America) has been the premier source of information and networking opportunities for the market’s players including the region’s most active issuers, investors (both local, pan regional and international), originators, structurers, distributors… the list goes on. For too long now, the talk has been about resilience of the Latin American market during the financial crisis and the lessons learnt from the melt down. The time for retrospection is over and it’s time to look forward. This year’s event focuses on the growth areas and products which promise to stem the tide of negative rhetoric which surrounds the securitization market.
The buzz in the market is reflected in this year’s programme which focuses on the potential for deals in:
- Covered bonds: Can the region’s regulatory framework adapt to meet the appetite?
- Securitization of rig-lease receivables
- Brazil’s RMBS market: Caixa’s debut to open the floodgates?
- Unsecured consumer loans – the asset of choice
- Infrastructure finance: Securitization to fill the gap left by withdrawal of public finance
- Kick starting the market for account receivables
- DPR (Diversified Payment Rights): The securitization that survived
