Bolivia/Mexico: Compañía de Inversiones Mercantiles (CIMSA) has signed a settlement agreement with GCC in the parties' dispute over a transaction affecting shares in Sociedad Boliviana de Cemento (SOBOCE). Law360 News has reported that the settlement does not preclude GCC´s option to recover the settlement amount from other third parties, if necessary.

GCC failed to grant CIMSA a right of preference before selling its 47% stake in SOBOCE in 2011. The Inter-American Commercial Arbitration Commission (CIAC) subsequently awarded compensation to CIMSA. Since this time, the matter has passed through courts in both Bolivia and the US.
