Brazil election over, but bond buyers want action

Reuters, Monday, October 26, 1998 at 18:53

By Hugh Bronstein
NEW YORK, Oct 26 (Reuters) - Investors were reluctant to
buy Brazilian debt on Monday despite a boost for President
Fernando Henrique Cardoso in Sunday's gubernatorial elections,
preferring to await fiscal reforms and an international
bailout.
Even though Mario Covas, a Cardoso ally, won re-election in
the key state of Sao Paulo, bolstering the president's
influence over the country's unpredictable Congress, investors
were skeptical, analysts said.
"I don't care how favorable the situation in Brazil gets;
it's going to take a long time for money to move back in any
substantial amount to this market," said Martin Schubert,
chairman of the European Inter-American Finance Corp., an
emerging markets debt trading and fund managing firm.
Brazilian debt, along with that of other emerging markets
worldwide, got trounced in the wake of Russia's default and
currency devaluation in August.
"The liquidity that has been taken out of the market over
the last two months has done tremendous damage," Schubert
added.
Debt prices were fractionally lower than on Friday just
ahead of the election.
Brazilian debt widened by 14 basis points, or .14
percentage point, over U.S. Treasuries on Monday morning,
according to J.P. Morgan & Co. Inc.'s Emerging Markets Bond
Index, while spreads of emerging debt in general widened by 11
basis points. A widening indicates an increase in risk,
compared with U.S. Treasury bonds, the benchmark debt
instrument.
With the state governor elections out of the way, the
government's economic team is expected to unveil a $20 billion
austerity plan, either on Tuesday or on Wednesday.
Investors will keep their hands in their pockets until the
exact structure of the government's proposal -- and that of an
an accompanying International Monetary Fund assistance package,
expected to be in the $30 billion range -- is announced, said
Paul Masco, chief emerging markets debt trader at Salomon Smith
Barney Inc.
"If a lot of the spending cuts and tax increases are
backloaded in a three-year plan, that's not going to get us
very far in 1999," Masco said.
"So there are still some things the market needs to see
before people jump back in," Masco said. "But for step one, the
elections went about as well as could be expected."
Siobhan Manning, Latin American debt strategist at
PaineWebber, agreed, saying this week looks like the one in
which the long-simmering rumors about the scope of Brazil's
fiscal initiatives may finally be confirmed.
"There won't be a rally unless we hear something
surprising, such as U.S. banks chipping in with financing for
Brazil," Manning said. "The Covas victory was positive, but the
market might remain skeptical until we see how the first vote
on the fiscal reform package goes in Congress."
The victory of opposition candidates in Brazil's three
other big states -- Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande
do Sul -- might complicate the president's attempts to include
local-level governments in Brazil's fiscal drive, Manning said.

No US decision yet on bilateral Brazil aid-W.House

Reuters, Monday, October 26, 1998 at 20:04

WASHINGTON, Oct 26 (Reuters) - The United States is still
undecided on what role to play in an expected rescue package
for Brazil, but it views the Brazilian economy as important to
the rest of the Western Hemisphere, the White House said on
Monday.
"As we have said over the last month or so, the Brazilian
economy is very important to the hemispheric economy," White
House spokesman Joe Lockhart told a news briefing.
He said Washington was in intensive talks about how best to
prevent an escalation of the problems already hitting Brazil,
but added: "There have been no specific decisions yet made on
what role, if any, the U.S. government will play."
Market analysts expect the United States to contribute
bilateral funds to a rescue package for Brazil, which is Latin
America's largest economy and the latest victim of the turmoil
rocking world financial markets.
A contribution could come from Treasury's special Exchange
Stabilization Fund, but might raise hackles in Congress, where
Republicans resent Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin's ability to
tap this fund without seeking approval from the legislature.
The United States last employed the Exchange Stabilization
Fund for its contributions to international rescue deals for
South Korea and Indonesia. The money, part of a second line of
defense for the two countries, has not yet been handed over.
The Brazilian package, expected to be worth some $30
billion in total, is thought likely to include up to $15
billion from the International Monetary Fund.
A large part of the money is likely to be "precautionary",
to be used only if Brazil's problems turn out deeper than
currently expected.

LatAm reaction to Brazil's plan hangs on viability

Reuters, Monday, October 26, 1998 at 20:44

By Carlos A. DeJuana
BUENOS AIRES, Oct 26 (Reuters) - Latin American stock
markets have soared in the last few weeks in anticipation of a
fiscal plan by Brazil they hope will end at least one episode
of this year's multi-acted financial drama.
But while street wisdom has the market buying the rumor and
selling the news, analysts say the reaction will depend on a
mesh of internal and external forces.
"A lot depends on the extent to which (Brazil's) Congress
appears to be ready to move on the measures," said John Mullin,
a Latin American strategist with ABN AMRO.
Expected on Wednesday, market talk has Brazil saving $20
billion through spending cuts and tax increases to trim its
budget deficit of around 7.0 percent of gross domestic product.
That would pave the way for some $30 billion in aid from the
International Monetary Fund and other lending agencies.
"If the plan is adequate and meets market expectations, it
will probably put an end to potentially bad news for Latin
America from inside Latin America," said Dario Lizzano, head of
Argentine research at Santander Investment.
Argentina's bourse has shot up almost 22 percent in the
last three weeks, followed by Latin America's two largest
markets, Brazil and Mexico, both rising about 13 percent. Chile
has risen almost 6 percent and Venezuela, weighed down by
elections next month, has dropped almost 4 percent.
But regardless of pre-emptive rallies, analysts said the
market's reaction will largely depend on the details of the
plan and market conditions at the time of the announcement.
"In general, the overall mood in the market excluding the
fiscal package...could have an influence on the outcome," said
Dresdner Kleinwort Benson's Latin American Strategist Denis
Parisien.
If markets awaken to new problems with Japan's banks or
U.S. investors get jittery about corporate earnings, a package
in line with expectations might actually be followed by
selling, Parisien said.
Should world markets be in high spirits, the announcement
could spur a rally. If sentiment is negative but the package
contains positive surprises, markets could U-turn and rise.
James Barrineau, an analyst with Salomon Smith Barney, sees
a maximum 20 percent upside and 30 percent downside for
regional stock markets in reaction to the package.
Key to shaping the package's reception will be what kind of
cuts it involves, which reductions will be immediate and the
viability of its long-term solutions.
"The difficulty here is timing. A lot of these things are
long-term issues," said ABN AMRO's John Mullin. "What they need
to do is deal with long-term problems, but they need short-term
signals to get interest rates down."
Brazil's interest rates have rocketed to around 50 percent,
largely stanching a $30 billion outflow of dollars in the past
couple of months.
The most important factor for stock markets will be what
comes after the Brazilian announcement, analysts said.
"The important issue is going to be if the plan is credible
in the long-term," said economist Marcelo Romano at Argentina's
Lopez Leon brokers.
Last year when Asia's financial crisis began, Brazil
reacted with an $18 billion fiscal plan, but made good on only
part of its 51 measures.
Besides dealing with Congress, Cardoso must now also
convince opposition governors in three of Brazil's largest
states to make painful economic decisions to bolster the
country's economy after their election this weekend.
"This thing could really drag on for a while," Mullin said.
"The next month and a half could see a lot of ups and downs as
things look a little better or worse on what the Congress is
going to do."

Brazil's Cardoso To Be First To Announce Fiscal Plan

Dow Jones Newswires

BRASILIA -- President Fernando Henrique Cardoso will address the nation
on television Tuesday night - or during Wednesday morning at the latest - on
the contents of the multi-year fiscal adjustment plan, a presidential spokesman
said Monday.

"The president will be the first to make public details of the measures that have
been elaborated," said spokesman Sergio Samaral during his daily press
briefing.

Earlier Monday a Finance Ministry spokesman said that Finance Minister
Malan is due to announce the austerity plan in full detail "some time
Wednesday" and present the measures for approval to Congress on Thursday.

Amaral didn't give further details apart from saying that the president feels that
he should be "the first one to give the information to the people."

Amaral said a possible time for a presidential broadcast would be around
2200GMT Tuesday.

"If not, the announcement will be made by the president some time
Wednesday morning, but before any other official issues details and before it is
handed to Congress," he said.

As reported, the finance ministry also said Monday that the government's
Fiscal Control Commission, or CCF, will meet Tuesday to lay the final touches
to the proposals which have been put together at the request of Cardoso.

On Oct. 20, Malan handed the bulk of the measures to the president.

Last Sunday, Cardoso met with the country's top businessmen and
entrepreneurs to discuss aspects of the plan, which aims at trimming the 7%
public deficit and is widely expected to include big spending cuts and some tax
increases.

The target is to effect savings of around 30 billion reals (BRR) ($1=BRR1.18)
and create conditions for possible international funding by the International
Monetary Fund (IMF) and other lenders to protect Brazil from international
financial turmoil.

Lehman Global Strategist Sees Latin Plan As Crucial

Dow Jones Newswires

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)-Market watchers are anxiously awaiting
announcement of a Latin American assistance package that could range
from $50 billion to $80 billion, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s (LEH)
director of global sovereign market strategy said Monday evening.

The package, which could be announced as early as Wednesday by the
International Monetary Fund, is expected to help build market confidence
by assisting Brazil's economy with a combination of funding and fiscal
controls, said Jose Barrioneuvo.

"We'll be looking for a rapid decline in interest rates and expecting that the
government will start extending the maturity of its internal debt," after the
program is put into place, he said.

The IMF-led Latin American liquidity fund will help countries in that region
support their reserves, and Brazil is expected to be among the first
recipients. Barrioneuvo said estimates for the fund range from $50 billion
to $80 billion, although he believes $50 billion is the more realistic level. Of
that amount, Brazil is expected to receive about $30 billion, he said, an
amount that is a critical starting point for market confidence.

"That $30 billion is going to be an important initial step in the context of
market liquidity conditions improving," he said.

Besides the funding, Barrioneuvo said people are awaiting a package of
fiscal measures that should be announced at the same time. Among the
items he is looking for are an increase in the country's financial transactions
tax; a tax on bank interest revenue or earnings; and spending measures
that will be tied to fiscal reforms at the congressional level. Almost as
important as the measures themselves will be how specifically they are laid
out, he said.

"What is critical for the Brazilian strategy is for the market to get a sense of
the timetable of the fiscal programs to be announced," he said.

MOF Kuroda:Japan Neither Approves Nor Opposed To Brazil Aid

Dow Jones Newswires

TOKYO -- Japan neither approves of or is opposed to an international
economic assistance package for Brazil, the head the Japanese Finance
Ministry's international bureau said Tuesday.

Haruhiko Kuroda told a small group of reporters that he understands that
Brazil is still only conducting unofficial talks with the International
Monetary Fund regarding possible assistance.

Until Japan receives word of an official agreement between the IMF and
Brazil, "we can't say we either approve of or are opposed to" an aid
package, he said.

Asked about a New York Times report Sunday saying that Japan and
Germany are opposed to participating in an assistance effort for Brazil,
Kuroda said such a report is "erroneous."

Kuroda said he believed Brazilian markets have become more stable.
