Delivering financing solutions to European Corporations in 2010
With the credit freeze thawing European corporations are rising to financing challenges through new syndicated bank loans, debt restructuring, bond issues, and equity issues in a mixed funding approach to recapalitise in 2010.
With billions of pounds of bank debt maturing in 2010-2011, the European syndicated loan market is facing its greatest demands and challenges in recent years at a time when credit is still constrained and capital adequacy requirements are increasing.
To examine these challenges and ways forward for both lenders and corporate borrowers, IFR is launching Outlook for European Lending 2010 - Refinancing and Restructuring Europe, on November 24th, 2009 at the Thomson Reuters HQ, London.
