Comprehending the Crisis: A Survey of Puerto Rico’s History and Fiscal Situation, and Paths Forward
The following session took place during Caribbean Insolvency Symposium in February 2016. The panel will discuss Puerto Rico’s present economic condition/situation, the sequence of events that have led to PR’s present economic crisis, what should/can be done to restructure PR’s debt, whether chapter 9 is an appropriate tool to restructure PR’s debt or a solution to its economic condition, and the legal issues that PR is likely to confront in light of its economic crisis.
