| Registration Statement on Form F-1 | |
| Registration File No. 333-221916 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to our letter, filed as correspondence via EDGAR on January 26, 2018, in which we, as the underwriters of Corporación América Airports S.A.’s (the “Company”) proposed initial public offering of common shares, joined the Company’s request for acceleration of the effective date of the above-named Registration Statement Statement (the “Registration Statement”) for January 30, 2018, at 4:00 p.m. (Washington D.C. time).
The Company is no longer requesting that such Registration Statement be declared effective at such time and thus we hereby formally withdraw our request for acceleration of the effective date.
Considering the above and in accordance with Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), we hereby join in the Company’s request for acceleration of the effective date of the Registration Statement so that it becomes effective at 4:00 p.m. (Washington D.C. time), on January 31, 2018, or as soon thereafter as practicable.
Pursuant to Rule 460 under the Act, we wish to advise you that we have distributed approximately 4,103 copies of the Company’s Preliminary Prospectus issued January 16, 2018, through the date hereof, to underwriters, dealers, institutions and others.
We have been informed by the participating underwriters that they will comply with the requirements of Rule 15c2-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with the above proposed offering.
| Very truly yours, | ||
