Introduction

Standard & Poor’s launched recovery rating coverage for corporates in Mexico in August, 2008. In 2007 we initiated insolvency regime research for Latin America, as well as Sovereign recovery ratings. Please refer to the “Latest Announcements” section below for more information on Mexico recovery ratings. You will also find our insolvency regime research for Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, which explain Standard & Poor’s views on the relative creditor-friendliness of the insolvency regimes in each of these jurisdictions.
