Distressed finance

+ Add to binder

The combined effect of the domestic fiscal and economic crisis, restricted liquidity in the banking system, and the restructuring of banking and State-owned portfolios make Greece one of the world’s largest distressed markets

Fusing the lessons of distressed investment across in other jurisdictions with local law and transactional practice is key to maximising protection for financial, corporate and asset investments in stressed and distressed assets. At KP we keep our distressed finance practice abrest with developments in all the major distressed investment markets, and constantly enrich with new ideas and structures our considerable experience in consensual and non-consensual financial restructurings, in and out of court, in Greece and internationally.
 
We regularly act for buyers of non-investment grade and distressed debt in the secondary market, under market standard and custom terms, and have developed comprehensive methodologies for the structuring and implementation of control transactions based on debt, in and out of court.
 
We are regularly consulted on the re-engineering or relocation of collateral structures for corporate borrowings, and particularly group borrowing, and group cash management structures, as well as the design and contractualisation of effective monetary protection, which seek to minimize of sovereign risk, as part of restructuring transactions.
 
We bring together leading insolvency and restructuring capabilities with our corporate law and finance strengths, into the tightly knit skill set required by secured and unsecured new money lenders, plan leaders, and turnaround advisors involved in any class of Greek distressed asset.
