Sovereign Debt Restructuring: Search For An Optimum Voting Threshold, Joy Dey Aug 2008

Sovereign Debt Restructuring: Search For An Optimum Voting Threshold, Joy Dey

Joy Dey

Sovereigns have been defaulting on their debts over decades now. A sovereign debt default necessitates a restructuring of the debt instrument in order to reduce the size of the debt or lengthen the maturity period. One of the methods of debt restructuring is an ‘exchange offer’ where the old debt instrument, for example the bond, is exchanged for new debt instruments with altered terms and conditions, particularly the payment terms. Whereas some investors may agree to such restructuring and accept the exchange offer, others might have different aspirations for their investments. A successful sovereign debt restructuring takes place when the …

Christian Anthropology And The Theory Of The Firm, Michael Lp Lower Jan 2008

Christian Anthropology And The Theory Of The Firm, Michael Lp Lower

Michael LP Lower

Catholic social thought (CST), a branch of moral theology, reflects Christian anthropology (an understanding of human nature that draws on Revelation and natural law theory). CST's understanding of what communities (such as the corporation) are for and how they can best achieve their ends are coloured by its anthropological underpinnings. The same, it is argued, is true for economic theories such as the theories of the firm based on Coase. This paper compares Christian anthropology with the implicit anthropology underpinning some of the dominant economic theories of the firm. Differences at this level go a long way to explaining mismatches …
