Venezuela’s government announced late Wednesday that it settled with Canadian mining company Gold Reserve (GDRZF), and will have a controlling stake in a new $5 billion joint venture.
Gold Reserves wanted $750 million including interest for the expropriation of its assets under the Hugo Chavez administration in 2008. The government is fighting a handful of related cases, via the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), that seek $3.2 billion in restitution with interest. The government’s bond covenants require that it pay arbitrated awards of $100 million or more within 30 days to avoid triggering defaults.
Eurasia Group analysts Risa Grais-Targow and Agata Ciesielska write that “while the deal demonstrates Venezuela’s willingness to pay its debt, liquidity constraints will still lead to a default in the fourth quarter of the year.” They add:
They note that Venezuela has other pending cases in arbitration:
Gold Reserve, which trades over the counter, was up more than 5% Wednesday. Today, the iShares Latin America 40 exchange-traded fund (ILF) was down slightly and the Market Vectors Emerging Markets High Yield Bond ETF (HYEM) was up 0.2%.
