BBC Business Today - Lee Robinson on impact of Maduro arrest on bond prices
Following the US intervention in Venezuela over the weekend of 3 January Lee Robinson spoke on BBC Business Today,
He made the case for why he believe sthere is still so much upside to come.
“Venezuela is not a normal country - a lot of countries that have dollar denominated debt don’t export dollar-based commodities. Venezuela was generating ~ $100bn of oil revenues 10 or 12 years ago on debt that was around $150bn - so their GDP was three times their debt, which compared to Western economies would be seen as incredibly high credit quality. Sadly that was all squandered.”
