After the IMF’s withdrawal of its proposal a decade ago for a Sovereign Debt Restructuring Mechanism (SDRM), and the adoption of the IIF's Principles for Stable Capital Flows and Fair Debt Restructuring and inclusion of collective action clauses (CACs) in EM bond issues, there have been various official sector and academic concerns about the existing mechanisms for restructuring sovereign bonds, particularly in response to developments in the European sovereign debt markets and pending litigation against Argentina. 

On October 16, EMTA presented a panel of sovereign debt experts, who described a variety of current proposals, including those being discussed within the IMF, to reform aspects of the international architecture for restructuring sovereign bonds. 

Today's panel of leading private sector practitioners will provide their own views on the current sovereign debt restructuring architecture and on the various proposals to reform it. 

This Special Seminar is the second in a three-part EMTA series of panels on sovereign debt, the international architecture to restructure it and proposed reforms. Our third panel on December 18 will endeavor to summarize the official sector and private sector positions and articulate a sensible path forward. 

Attendance is US$75 for EMTA Members / US$495 for non-members / This Seminar is closed to the press. 

REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT THROUGH THE WEBSITE IS NOW CLOSED, HOWEVER, YOU MAY CLICK HERE TO REGISTER BY EMAIL.
