Venezuela has a high risk of asset seizure so few if any would provide a ETF that catered for stock exposure.

Even bonds are highly speculative/volatile and distil down to default risk/changes in inflation/interest rates.



http://www.tradingeconomics.com/venezuela/indicators indicates recent 10 year government bond yield is just under 11%. The longer dated the bond the greater the price sensitivity to changes in market yields.

Not sure how easy/not it might be to trade bonds directly. BONO Market Vectors Latin American Bond ETF has Venezuela weighted around 10% http://etfdb.com/factsheets/BONO/

If you could short Mexican and short Brazil bonds you could negate the two largest out of BONO to leave a predominately Venezuelian bond fund.
