China — A conditioning factor…. Rising risks from financial imbalances/credit misallocation on the back of its credit boom. There is no obvious
“trigger” for financial crisis given unique domestic funding nature. But almost all episodes of deleveraging result
in slower growth. It is difficult to see China growing more than 7.5%.
China’s pace of credit expansion augurs a period of
deleveraging…

More sustained growth coupled with improved macroeconomic frameworks drove many to wonder if, finally, the
region was ready to escape from the so-called "middle income trap".

While growth accelerated in the 2000s in LatAm, growth in output per-worker did so only marginally. Figure 4
shows that the region's past average growth in per worker terms is comparable to other historical periods.

In other words, the acceleration in growth was not the consequence of higher capital accumulation or
productivity gains, but of stronger labor accumulation, casting some doubts on its sustainability.

The significant increase in the employed population during the 2000s is puzzling as population growth has been
declining steadily in most of the region.

LatAm: Low Saving Rates may Limit Investment Saving rates have decreased. As a result, higher investment needs to be financed by external savings,
increasing the countries’ external vulnerability and their dependence on global financial conditions.
15
When we look at LatAm as a whole, the current account deficit stands at 2.3%, more than twice the deficit from
emerging Europe (1% of GDP) and compared to a 2% of GDP surplus in developing Asia.

D. Rousseff Again: Maybe, But We Can Not Be Sure Anymore D. Rousseff’s popularity level does not assure her reelection anymore. World Cup, power rationing and the
economy are the major liabilities.
We still have D.Rousseff ’s reelection as our base case scenario
During the demonstrations last year, D.Rousseff ’s popularity
plummeted to 30% from 51%.
D.Rousseff ’s approval rate has been falling lately, hovering around
35%
Below 35%, her reelection is under severe risk.

Key Risks for Dilma: World Cup and Power Rationing The impact of World Cup on the economy has disappointed so far. A 6 p.p. Reduction in Energy Supply is
already a technical recommendation, but Federal Government is taking the risk.
Previous analysis was very optimistic about the impact on the World
Cup. Now, we think the net effect in growth would be modest.
From 2007, when the World Cup was announced, to 2012, the
infrastructure investments in GDP terms rose from 1.8% to 2.3%.
The World Cup will likely produce more downside than upside effects
to the incumbent federal government
Levels of reservoirs kept roughly flat so far in 2014, mainly reflecting
the disappointing precipitation season. (April 38.8%)
According to National System Operator (ONS), level of reservoirs will
drop slightly in May.
Power rationing would imply lower growth, high inflation, worse fiscal
fundamentals, larger current account deficit, all of them likely hurting
D. Rousseff´s popularity.

Activity – Real GDP Growth, Retail Sales& Industrial Production
Source: IBGE and Citi Research Source: IBGE and Citi Research
We expect 2014 GDP growth to be about 1.3% and 1.8% in 2015. Potential output is slightly below 3.0%,
according to our models.
4Q13 GDP expanded 0.7% QoQ, above expectations.
Our BLI model was estimating 1Q14 GDP growth to reach 0.3%
QoQ.
Looking ahead, our structural models estimate GDP growth to hover
around 0.3% QoQ.
.
Widening gap between retail sales and industrial production
represents the evidence of strong demand amid disappointing
industrial performance.
In principle, stronger global growth and weaker domestic currency
suggests improvement of industrial sector.
But high level of real unit labor cost in industry constrains this good
perspective.

Monetary Policy – We Are Not in Kansas Anymore
Sources: Brazilian Central Bank and Citi Research Source: Brazilian Central Bank, Bloomberg and Citi Research
We expect Selic at 11% in 2014 year-end. We also assume a resumption of tightening cycle in 2015.
Interest Rate Long-term Interest Rates
Real interest rate has declined from 7.5% in 2011 to 1.5% in 2012,
but since April/13 Central Bank has started a tightening cycle.
The deteriorating inflation outlook motivated Copom to hike Selic rate
by 350bp so far, bringing real interest rate back to levels above 4%.
We expect Copom to keep Selic rate at 11% until year end.
Long end of the Brazilian curve looks to peg US10 year rate.
If US10Y rate goes to 4%, Selic might return to 13%.
Correlation between the two series is 88%.
To arbitrage US x Brazil long-term interest rate BRL needs to
depreciate.

Inflation – At the Upper Bound of Inflation Target 2014 and 2015
We forecast CPI inflation at 6.6% in 2014, above the mid-point of the target (4.5%). CPI inflation keeps above
the mid-point target despite the weak GDP growth.
Services inflation (amounts 20% of CPI basket) continues to surpass
CPI inflation markedly.
Tight labor market is strongly linked to service inflation that has been
sticky above 8.5%.
Food inflation had reached its peak in April (14%) and reverted after
that. Recent dry weather is pressuring food prices again.
Monitored prices have been exerting a downward pressure through
energy tax cuts, revoke of public transportation fares hikes and
freeze of gasoline prices.
Sources: Brazilian Central Bank and Citi Research Sources: Bloomberg and Citi Research
We forecast IPCA inflation at 6.6% in 2014, above the target band
(2.5% - 6.5%).
We expect hikes in gasoline prices this year to reduce the large gap
to international prices.
BRL depreciation will increase inflation pressures ahead and is the
main risk to our forecasts.

Fiscal Accounts – Social Unrest Worsens Fiscal Trade Off
We expect primary surplus of 1.5% of GDP in 2014, while Government is aiming 1.9% in 2014. The fiscal room
to further tax rebates is limited. So interest rate should return as the main tool to fight inflation.
Even with one-off revenues, the primary surplus fell to 1.9% of GDP
in 2013 (from 2.4% in 2012).
In January/February, central government surplus disappointed but
regional one surprised in the upside.

Mexico — Energy Reform
The secondary laws will define the depth of inflows into the energy sector.
34
Dec 2014 Dec 2013
Constitutional Reform
Senate Approval
Chamber of Deputies approval
Local Congresses Approval (16/31)
Signing by the President
Lawmakers to:
• Define the details of the contracts that can be rendered with private companies
• Define the new attributes of the Energy Sector authorities: SENER, CNH and CRE
• Produce new legal framework for Productive State Enterprises
• Create the National Agency for Industrial Safety and Environment Protection
120 days
365 days
• Legal framework for environmental protection and efficient energy use. As
well as that for reducing gas emissions and green house effects.
90 days
• Pemex presents to SENER a list of
fields that it can productively continue to
operate.
180 days
Round Zero
• SENER decides which fields will
continue to be operated by PEMEX
Mexico — Inflows from the Energy Reform
High dispersion in estimates about inflows, but the consensus is that the flows will be gradual.
35
Source: Citi Research
Projected Investment Flows According to Different
‘Top-Down’ approaches (USD million)
Materialization of investment flows will be gradual: these flows
will probably peak around 2018.
Estimates vary, but investment flows will likely be relevant.
In conventional E&P we estimate USD 15-20 billion
per year
Investment in downstream activities could materialize
faster, and will help to boost manufacturing
competitiveness
The reform also includes the electricity sector: its
appeal as investment destination is quite substantial
as well
All in all, Gross Fixed Investment could increase by 2% of
GDP, with demand-driven growth impacts easily implying
additional GDP growth by at least 1%.

Argentina — The result? Stagflation gets worse
We expect growth to be negative (-1.5%) in 2014, and we see real GDP flat in 2015. Despite the lack of activity

Agricultural exports pickup in 2Q and start decreasing forward, leading to higher pressure on the FX front. Also,

Venezuela — SICAD II In our view, some of the supply that will be given in SICAD 2 will come from USD-denominated bonds in hands
of the government and public. We continue to believe the only mechanism to “normalize” the USD supply in the
country is by issuing additional debt.

Chile — Effects over Investment and Monetary Policy
Lower copper prices and the fiscal reform bill are working against investment in the country. This has led the

LatAm Issuance by Loan Type Volume in 1Q 2014 was lower than the last two quarters of 2013 with term loans
becoming the dominant loan type.
LatAm Loan Issuance by Purpose 1Q 2014 During the 1Q 2014, General Corporate Purposes overtook Refinancing as the main
purpose of loan issuance. Project Financing remains as a strong use of loan funds,
while Refinancing has taken a back seat.
