US Financial Stake In Chile
Introduction
Chances are good that t!arxist candidate Salvador
Allende will assume the Chilean presidency on
4 November. Allende has roundly c;ondcmned the role
of foreign capital in Chile and pledged to nationalize
large segments of the economy, including most if not
all enterprises with foreign ownership. He also has
stated that foreign aid agreements with the United
States will be denounced and that Chile will "take as
long as possible" to pay off existing debts. This
memorandum assesses the financial exposure of the US
private sector and the US government in Chile.
US Private Sector Assets in Chile
1. At a minimum, US private assets in Chile
total about $1.5 billion. Of this amount, we esti-
mate the book value of US direct investments* at
$800 million. The replacement or market value of
these investments, while difficult to estimate, is
obviously considerably higher. The remaining US
private assets include the following:
* The amortized value of company equity investments
and direct parent company bane to Chilean eubsid-
iariee.
Note: This memorandum was produced solely by CIA.
It was prepared by the Office of Economic Research

$255 million in Chilean government
notes issued to US companies as
partial compensation for past
nationalizations;;
$45 millio;i in estimated US holdings
of publicly issued Chilean bonds;
$105 million in long-term loans to
local enterprises and institutions;
$250 million in estimated short-term
loans,mainly to finance foreign
trade;
$20 million in corporate short-term
financing of dealer stocks.
2. During the past two years the book value of
direct investment in-Chile has declined sharply,
despite, the massive copper expansion program
nearing completion, and it now represents only
about 6% of total, US investment in Latin America.
;Direct investment fell from $964 million at the
.end of 1968 to $846 million at the end of 1969,
largely because Anaconda was forced to sell Chile
51% of its two producing mines for $175 million.
The $80 million sale of Boise Cascade Corporation's
interest in the Chilean Electric Power Company in
August 1970 reduced the total further. In both
cases, the US firms received long-term Chilean
government notes as payment. Kennecott Copper
Corporation was similarly reimbursed when it sold
a 51% interest in its large El Teniente mine for
$85.million,in 1967. As she Chilean government
paid off these notes, Kennecott enlarged its direct
investment by;reioaning the funds to the new joint
.company, as previously agreed.
3. Considerably more than half of US direct
investment is concentrated in mining and smelting,
especially copper mines qnd processing facilities
(see the table). Investment in public utilities,
mainly the telephone and telegraph systems, is
also substantial. Although investment in manu-
facturing and trade is relatively small, numerous
companies have subsidiaries, branches, or sales
offices in Chile (see:,the attached unclassified
listing).

US Government Guaranties
4. If Chile expropriates without adequate
compensation, blocks repatriation of profits and
capital, and defaults on loans, US firms would be
able to draw on government credit and investment
guaranties to cover an important share of their
losses. The Export-Import Bank has insured $64
million in export credit financing, mainly long-
term. More important, investors in Chile have
been among the leading participants in the Specific
Risk Investment Guaranty Program, administered by
the Agency for International Development (AID).
5. The Investment Guaranty Program, as presently
constituted, was initiated in the early 1960s tc
encourage direct private investment in less developed
areas by insuring investors against losses from war
and insurrection, expropriation without adequate
and timely compensation, or inconvertibility of local
currency holdings. Only new investments are covered,
and AID establishes a maximum coverage based on the
project's estimated cost plus anticipated retained
earnings during an agreed-upon period. Within this
limit, the investor may select either stand-by or
current coverage against one or all specified risks.
Only current coverage provides immediate protection;
stand-by coverage, which costs considerably less,
merely gives the investor an option to convert to
current coverage as investment proceeds. This
option can be exercised only once a year -- on the
anniversary of the policy date.

6. As of 10 September 1970, US investors in
Chile had current coverage against expropriation
totaling $293 million and stand-by coverage for an
additional $355 million (see the Appendix)'. A sub-
stantial portion -- $235 million -- of this stand-by
total represents the maximum coverage on two Anaconda
projects whose eligibility is now in dispute, however.
Although most investment expenditures on these
projects already have been made and the company has
opted for current coverage, full conversion of
Anaconda's stand-by coverage is unlikely.* The
remaining $120 million in stand-by coverage repre-
sents investments US companies had planned to make.
These firms are not expecting to invest more than
$20 million to $30 million in the next year, how-
ever, and thus in the coming months will opt for
additional current coverage only on this amount.
Current protection against the risk of inconver=
tible currency amounts to only $51 million, but an
additional $645 million is on stand-by, including
$235 million in coverage that Anaconda claims is
still valid. Although US firms can convert their
stand-by coverage to current coverage against ex-
propriation only before their assets are affected,
they may shift from stand-by to current coverage
for protection against inconvertibility after the
local government has taken action.
Anaconda a year ago agreed under severe pressure
to sell its-major properties -- the Chuquicamata
and EZ Salvador mines -- to the Chilean government,
and the issue between AID and the company on these
properties' eligibility for coverage is still un-
resolved. Anaconda temporarily retains a 49% equity
in these properties but is committed to relinquishing
it. Under the 1969 agreement, which Allende says he
will not honor, Anaconda will keep this equity until
sometime after 1 January 1973, when the Chilean
government would buy out its remaining shares.
Actual investment in these properties that is subject
to coverage under the guaranty program totals $186
million; the company has not accumulated any part of
the $49 million in retained earnings allowed in the
original AID-Anaconda contract. It is possible that
only $91 million, or 49% of the investment, will be
judged eligible for guaranty coverage.

potential Private Loss
7. If Allende becomes Chile's president on
4 November and promptly expropriates all US proper-
ties and repudiates financial claims, American
business could suffer a net loss of up to $1 bil-
lion. This sum does not include the difference
between the $800 million book value of direct
investment and the likely market value of these
assets. The $1 billion estimate assumes that:
The Anaconda propertia)s partly
nationalized by Chile in 1969 will be
ruled ineligible for coverage under
the Investment Guaranty Program; and
US financial instituti',ns and in-
dustri.'a corporations will riot be able
to reduce their short-term loans by
more than 50% before default.

8, Under some circumstances, the loss to the
US private sector would be less than the estimate
above. Even if Allende exproprated US firms
fairly early in his administration, the net private
loss would be reduced by somewhere between $91 mil-
lion and $186 million if Anaconda received a favor-
able decision on the investment guaranty gpestion.
In the unlikely event that Allende would permit
repaying of private US loans to help maintain Chile's
worldwide credit standing and would provide partial
compensation for nationalized properties, private
losses would be further reduced.
US Government's Exposure to Loss
9. Because Chile has been one of Latin America's
main aid recipients, it has a substantial debt to
the US government. On 30 June 1970, outstanding
obligations (disbursements less repayments) totaled
$900 mil".ion. More than half the debt arose from
AID loans, mainly with long maturities and 1,c~:: .
interest rates. Loans from the Export-Impo;:t Bank
also were large, as the following tabulation of
balances outstanding shows:
Million US $
AID loans
525.7
Repayable in dollars
490.4
Repayable in escudos
35.3
Food for peace programs
(excluding AID loans from
PL-480 sales proceeds)
47.8
Export-Import Bank loans
318.0
Military aid credits
8.8
10. Total US government losses could run as
high as $1.6 billion on debt default and expropria-
tion, if all possible expropriation coverage
(including Anaconda's contested claims) now held
under the investment Guaranty Program came into
effect before hostile actions were taken. Washington
not only could suffer a $900 million debt repudi;t-
tion but could be liable for $64 million in claims

under Export-Import Bank credit guaranties and,
in the event of total expropriation without com-
pensation, for between $300 million and $650 mil-
lion under the Investment Guaranty Program. If
Anaconda were awarded only a $91 million settle-
ment and expropriation action were taken by the
end of 1970, US government losses would be likely
to run somewhat less than $1.4 billion. Should
Chile move to block foreign exchange remittances,
the US government also would be committed to pur-
chase, over time, a maximum of nearly $700 million
in inconvertible escudos held by US investors
covered under the investment Guaranty Program.
The government's additional losses in such an event
cannot be estimated.*
Conclusions
11. An Allende government would threaten a US
public and private financial stake in Chile that now
totals at least $2.4 billion. Privately held assets
amount to nearly $1.5 billion, counting direct in-
vestments only at their $800 million book value even
though they are worth considerably more. The US
government has outstanding loans approximating $900
million, in addition to sizable contingent liabili-
ties for private losses under Export-Import Bank
and Specific Risk Investment Guaranty programs.
Total losses would, of course, be smaller than
$2.4 billion if nationalization were nct total,
some compensation were provided, or some loan
repayments were permitted.
12. Even if all US properties were nationalized
without compensation and all loans defaulted, private
sector losses would be considerably smaller than the
$1.5 billion stake. Because some short-term assets
* Expropriation and inconvertibility coverages
overlap to the extent that an investor invokes his
guaranty against inconvertibility to cover blocked
capital depreciation outflows. In such a case, the
potential expropriation coverage is reduced. Con-
versely, in the event of expropriation, an investor's
inconvertibility coverage would serve only a limited
purpose.

will be recovered before Allende could take action
and because long-term assets totaling $350 million
are currently protected by US government guaranties,
the net private loss at most would be about $1 ,bil-
lion. Depending upon the timing of nationalization
and the decision regarding Anaconda's eligibility
for guaranty coverage, the US government might have
to cover as much as an additional $300 million to
$350 million in private losses. Thus, including
renunciation of US government loans, the US govern-
ment's loss would total between $1.25 billion and
$1.6 billion. Should US investor remittances be
blocked, the government also is committed to make
good on as much as $700 million in inconvertible
escudos, which would add an indeterminable amount
to its potential bill.
