English term or phrase: bailout????
The cost of the banking crises in Colombia and Ecuador has been huge. The collapse of Landes' financial holdings in Ecuador and Colombia left behind multimillion-dollar losses; some depositors or investors in the mutual funds lost their life savings.
In Ecuador, bank collapses contributed to the country's severe financial problems, which led to Ecuador defaulting on its foreign debt last year and requiring an International Monetary Fund bailout.

moratoria indefinida (de pagos de deudas)


Explanation:
Hola. Se refiere a la petición de dichos paises al FMI para que suspenda sus exigencias de cobro de los préstamos e intereses hechos con anterioridad. Vamos, que les den un paracaidas en plena caida, que de ahí viene "to bail out" (saltar en paracaidas). 2 enlaces abajo para cercioramiento total. Salud :)

See explanation below


Explanation:
to bail out significa "Echar un cable", en el sentido de "Ayudar". Por lo tanto, supongo que "bailout" significa algo así como "ayuda del Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI)"

Suerte, y feliz Navidad.

further explanation


Explanation:
It´s not necessarily help received from the International Monetary Fund. That is why it mentions banks and other State entities. Argentina has just received a bailout from international banks together with the Spanish State and other entities which are interested in helping because they have invested in the country and want to protect those investments.

salvataje financiero


Explanation:
La búsqueda en Google da casi mil referencias, referidas a varios países, y muchas directamente relacionadas con el "blindaje" del FMI para Argentina.

Paul tiene razón, es como ponerle un paracaídas al que viene cayendo (Mirale la cara a De la Rua en la foto de todos los diarios de hoy y te darás una idea.)

Saludos,

Patricia

RESCATAR


Explanation:
To bail someone out is to rescue them, particularly financially or when they're in a mess. There is a small connotation of them having got themselves into the mess. It has a general meaning in English and is not nedcessarily a 'finance' term.

Basically in Spanish it's RESCATAR

Explanation:
Literally, the "bailout" is the ejection of the pilot's seat and cockpit when the plane is in trouble. By extension it means getting out of a difficult situation by means of something's or somebody's help. It'd be reasonable to translate it for "rescate". but amazingly enough, the Spanish speaking media are calling it "blindaje". Just yesterday I was reading in the Spanish El País: El FMI se dispone a ofrecer blindaje a la economía argentina (which is currently in serious trouble).
