BMI Research: Latin America Monitor: Central America Monitor: Tight Call, But ARENA To Shade It.

The article provides a political outlook for El Salvador as of October 2008. Business International Monitor (BMI) believes another victory for the ruling Alianza Republicana Nacionalista (ARENA) party in the 2009 election would be positive news for the country's creditworthiness and long-term investment appeal. An ARENA re-election would reassure the market of a credible debt management strategy going forward, according to BMI.
