Fitch Publishes Brazilian Steel Dashboard

CHICAGO & RIO DE JANEIRO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Link to Fitch Ratings' Report: Brazilian Steel Dashboard

http://www.fitchratings.com/creditdesk/reports/report_frame.cfm?rpt_id=865502

Fitch Ratings has published the new Brazilian Steel Dashboard.

The publication explores key themes affecting the credit profiles of the incumbent players within the Brazilian steel industry. Items that are monitored in the report include: expectations of domestic steel demand, higher profitability arising from its protected market, scope of increasing exports, and the degree to which this could offset lower domestic demand and effect of the depreciation of the Brazilian Real. In general, liquidity is robust for Brazilian steel companies during 2015 although gross leverage in some cases remains high.

A complete review of these topics including a review of the dashboard is available at www.fitchratings.com or by clicking on the link above.
