ARGENTINA: Advancing with debt renegotiation strategy
After securing the support of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for its plans to seek a write-down of the debt owed to Argentina’s private creditors [WR-20-07], the government led by President Alberto Fernández is stepping up efforts to try to secure a debt renegotiation deal. Fernández and his economy minister, Martín Guzmán, have been busy flying around the world to talk to the IMF and foreign bondholders about their debt restructuring proposals.
