This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Nomura Institute of Capital Markets Research publication The financial crisis of 2007–08 and the Great Recession caused more widespread economic trauma than any event since the Great Depression. With a slow and uneven recovery, encouraging stability and growth is critical. Financial Restructuring to Sustain Recovery maintains that while each part of the financial services industry can play a useful role in revving up the U.S. economic engine to full capacity, the necessary reforms are sometimes subtle and often difficult to implement. Editors Martin Neil Baily, Richard Herring, and Yuta Seki and their coauthors break recovery down by three areas: Restructuring the housing finance market Reforming the bankruptcy process Reenergizing the market for initial public offerings Included are lessons drawn from Japan's experience in overcoming its long-lasting financial crisis after the collapse of its real estate market in the 1990s.

Download or read book The Economics of Bank Bankruptcy Law written by Matej Marinč and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-18 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows that a special bank bankruptcy regime is desirable for the efficient restructuring and/or liquidation of distressed banks. It explores in detail both the principal features of corporate bankruptcy law and the specific characteristics of banks including the importance of public confidence, negative externalities of bank failures, fragmented regulatory framework, bank opaqueness, and the related asset-substitution problem and liquidity provision. These features distinguish banks from other corporations and are largely neglected in corporate bankruptcy law. The authors, an assistant professor for money and finance and a research economist at the Dutch Central Bank, propose changes in both prudential regulation and reorganization policies that should allow regulators and banking authorities to better mitigate disruptions in the financial system and minimize the social costs of bank failures. Their recommendations are complemented by a discussion of bank failures from the 2007–2009 financial crisis.
Download or read book New Financing for Distressed Businesses in the Context of Business Restructuring Law written by Sanford U. Mba and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-29 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the restructuring of distressed businesses, emphasizing the need for new financing during the restructuring process as well as during relaunch, and examines the role of law in encouraging creditor confidence and incentivizing lending. It describes two broad approaches to encouraging new finance during restructuring: a prescriptive one that seeks to attract credit using expressly defined statutory incentives, and a market-based one that relies on the business judgment of lenders against the backdrop of transaction avoidance rules. Securing new financing for a distressed business is a critical part of successful restructuring. Without such financing, the business may be unable to meet interim liquidity constraints, or to implement its restructuring plans. This book addresses related questions concerning the place of new financing as an essential component of restructuring. In general terms, the book explores how statutory interventions and the courts can provide support with contentious issues that arise from the provision of new financing, whether through new financing agreements or through distressed debt investors, who are increasingly gaining prominence as sources of new financing for distressed businesses. It argues that courts play a key part in preventing or correcting the imbalances that can arise from the participation of distressed debt investors. In this context, it critically examines the distressed debt market in emerging markets like Nigeria and the opportunity presented by non-performing loans, arguing that the regulatory pattern of market entry may dis-incentivize distress debt investing in a market that is in dire need of financing. The book offers a fresh and comparative perspective on restructuring new financing for distressed businesses by comparing various approaches (primarily from the US, UK and Germany) and drawing lessons for frontier markets, with particular reference to Nigeria. It fills an important gap in international comparative scholarship and discusses a living problem with both empirical and policy aspects.

This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 5.00 (very good), Josip Juraj Strossmayer University of Osijek (Faculty of Economics in Osijek), language: English, abstract: Every company has a unique life cycle. Throughout the life cycle, companies are tracking successes and failures, depending on the various factors that affect their business. Situations such as financial distress , idleness, or bankruptcy represent the fundamental levels of a company's life cycle. The purpose of the paper is to present the financial restructuring of the company in business problems on the example of the Agrokor Group. This paper describes the operations of the Agrokor Group from 2007 to 2017, ie it is divided into business analysis prior to the extraordinary administration and in the procedure of extraordinary administration. The characteristics of Agrokor Group's operations prior to extraordinary administration are: low liquidity and negative working capital over the observed period, extended payment of obligations to suppliers ranging from 110 to 211 days, ie 156 days on average, increased indebtedness and high indebtedness and insolvency in 2016, solid Group's activity ratios , positive profitability by 2015. With the advent of extraordinary administration , inappropriate corporate governance has been identified, and audit results show that accounting irregularities and potential illegal actions have been identified. Claims recognized amounted to HRK 31.04 b illion , while disputed claims amounted to HRK 10.4 b illio n. The Group has a financial arrangement of EUR 1.06 billion with super senior status. In addition, the complex structure of claims is emphasized. Bearing in mind all the above, the Group's financial restructuring is possible with the new corporate structure, the new capital structure, the allocation of financial instruments to stakeholders. Returns to creditors should be defined by the entity's priority model. Group value would be distributed among stakeholders based on their legal rights, ie the model's rank. The value of each claim claimed is determined by the fraction of the total distributable value that it needs to receive. After that, it will determine how many depositary receipts and the exchangeable bonds each creditor receives.
