Stanford Panama Once Again Open for Bids

The proposal submitted by a colombian group was unsuccessful, so the process is once again open for bids.

Tuesday, May 12, 2009

The bid submitted by the colombian group did not meet seller or Bank Superintendent expectations.

Edith Castillo wrote in Prensa.com: "In the beginning, the possibility of selling the banking and security operations in a single package was suggested, but there has been a change in plans, and now Stanford Securities will be sold separately. The Committee Chair of the National Securities Commission, Juan Martans, reported that they are open to receiving proposals from groups interested in the securities exchange."
