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…

LatAm: Some (Unpleasant) Growth Accounting

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".

11

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.

LatAm: Some (Unpleasant) Growth Accounting

12

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: Some (Unpleasant) Growth Accounting

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.

Before TV campaign starts in August, the opposition candidates are

not well known

For the first time this year, polls are showing 2nd round

A. Neves has been seeing as D. Rousseff´s opponent in the first

round, but Campos might be better for the second run.

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

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%.

We expect growth to be negative (-1.5%) in 2014, and we see real GDP flat in 2015. Despite the lack of activity

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.
