"Events of the last decade remind us that debt restructuring is an integral and challenging part of international commercial practice. Cross-Border Debt Restructurings presents an accessible and comprehensive treatment of this multi-faceted topic, ...
... and provides an overview of the laws, mechanics and strategies of debt restructuring. The contributors to this impressive work include financiers, lawyers and other practitioners, who offer the reader the benefit of their experience through the detailed examination of specific topics of interest and multiple case studies. This effective blending of theory and practice makes Cross-Border Debt Restructurings a valuable resource for practitioners and academics alike." Mickey Kantor, Former US Commerce Secretary /Former US Trade Representative

"a comprehensive, authoritative and multidisciplinary practitioner's manual on debt restructurings on a global basis could not be more opportune. Consequently, I am sure that the entire It's audience will undoubtedly celebrate the novelty of this book and be overjoyed with and, perhaps, enriched by this distinct, unique piece of work on one of the hottest subjects on the international financial arena." From the Foreword by Emilio J. Cárdenas, Past President, International Bar Association.

"It is rare that one can find in a single volume a comprehensive treatment of both sovereign and corporate debt restructuring techniques and case studies. Although the two branches of this discipline -- sovereign and corporate -- have much in common (and this book skillfully identifies the areas of congruence), there are very significant differences. Cross-Border Debt Restructurings assembles an impressive cast of experts who can speak with authority about the latest techniques in both sovereign and corporate debt workouts. The editors have marshaled these contributions into a coherent and highly readable text." Lee C. Bucheit, Partner, Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton LLP
