Hallo,

hier eine weitere Ausgabe des beliebten Newsletters für Masochisten und Weltuntergangssekten. Je nach Newsreader kann die Darstellung weniger als perfekt befriedigend sein, daher könnte sich ein Blick auf die Onlineversion lohnen, die außerdem verschlagwortet ist.

Zitat:The leveraged loan market begins the week in "disarray" following
the collapse of efforts to syndicate the debt used to finance the
$17.1bn buy-out of Harrah's Entertainment, bankers say.
The group of banks backing buyers Apollo Management and Texas Pacific
Group are having trouble selling on $14bn in loans and bonds to
third parties.

Der Deal, ein klassicher LBO, hat übrigens erst 2008 begonnen. Abschluss
irgendwann Ende Januar. Wie kann man nur so blöd sein?
Zitat:
[...]
The prospect of massive losses took its toll on the group of banks
arranging the Harrah's financing. Credit Suisse, under pressure to
get its lending exposures down, sold about $1bn of its share of the
debt ahead of the agreed schedule, infuriating the other banks.

Ratten und sinkende Schiffe, wie war die Story noch?
Zitat:
[...]
The utter freeze in the debt market means the banks now face larger
potential losses on other big buy-out deals - such as BCE and Clear
Channel Communications - and will be more desperate to get out of
the financing commitments on those deals.
Banks are already saddled with more than $150bn of unsyndicated debt,
most of it LBOrelated, according to S&P data.
Gruß, Uwe
