EM LATAM CREDIT: Telefonica Moviles Chile Gets 5-Yr Loan From Parent Subsidiary
Telefónica Móviles Chile announces approval of a CLP371 billion loan" - BBG
The company agreed to a 5-year loan from parent Telefonica of Spain for CLP371bn (USD393mn) to relieve market concerns about liquidity in the wake of the recent bankruptcy filing of Telefonica Peru and conditions of a potential sale by the parent who is exiting all of its Latin American businesses except Brazil. This should help market sentiment as MOVCHI 2031 bonds have been pressured in the past few weeks and closed yesterday around USD52 in price which was 15.54%. We see them last quoted on Bloomberg about 10 points higher at this writing, USD61.94.
