Current Report: Banco Latinamericano De Commercio Exterior

Banco Latinoamericano de Comercio Exterior SA (BLX) was founded in 1977 and is headquartered in Panama City, Panama.

Banco Latinoamericano de Comercio Exterior SA provides trade financing to commercial banks, middle-market companies, and corporations. 

Three key data points gauge BLX (or any dividend-paying entity):

(1) Price 

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

Those three keys also indicate if any company has made, is making, and will make money.

BLX Price

BLX’s single share price increased $7.66 (or 18%) from $42.37 to $50.03 this past year, per Friday’s closing market report.

Two analysts cover the stock. The median of their one year target estimates predict a $5 jump in price.

However, a review of the past ten years of BLX’s prices shows an average annual increase of $2.87 per year.

Remember the best way to track stock performance and dividend payments is through direct ownership of company shares.

BLX Dividends

Banco Latinoamericano de Comercio Exterior SA has paid quarterly variable dividends since February 2001. The March 2026 declared Q dividend of $0.69 suggests a $2.76 forward annual dividend estimate for the coming year.

BLX Returns

Putting it all together, a hypothetical annual gross gain of $5.63 per share is predicted by adding the $2.76 forward-looking dividend to a 10yr average BLX $2.87 annual price-gain next year.

A little over $1000 invested at Friday’s $50.03 share price would buy 20 shares which multiply the $5.63 estimated gross gain to an estimated $112.53 upside for the coming year.

49% of that $113 upside gain could come from the $55.00 annual dividend payout from your $1,000 investment.

And the $55.00 dividend from $1k invested is about 10% over the BLX single share price.

(A dividend dogcatcher rule is to only buy initial shares of a stock that pay an annual dividend from $1000 invested that is greater than the cost of a single share.

BLX’s $55 dividend from $1,000 invested is 10% above Friday’s $50.03 single share price. 

The exact track of BLX’s future share price and dividend will entirely be determined by market action and company finances. 

Remember, the best way to track stock performance and dividend payments is through direct ownership of company shares.
