委内瑞拉首席经济顾问:Centerview仍是债务重组财务顾问 债务规模或达2000亿美元

委内瑞拉首席经济顾问卡利斯托·奥尔特加10月16日在曼谷出席国际货币基金组织与世界银行年会间隙对路透社表示,美国金融服务公司Centerview Partners仍是委内瑞拉债务重组的财务顾问。「我们对他们非常满意。」他说,并称本周已与该公司举行会谈。
委内瑞拉于今年5月宣布启动主权债务与国家石油公司PDVSA债务的重组,并聘请Centerview担任财务顾问;6月曾有报道称美国投行Lazard有意竞逐替代。奥尔特加表示,Centerview仍深度参与重组进程。
本周早些时候,奥尔特加曾表示委内瑞拉希望「很快」公布债务可持续性分析,但进程比预期更具挑战。委内瑞拉待重组债务估计达1500亿至2000亿美元,若完成,可能成为史上规模最大的债务重组,且债权人结构错综复杂。(GSM 据路透社报道)
Centerview Remains Venezuela's Financial Adviser on Debt Restructuring, Top Economic Adviser Says
US financial services firm Centerview Partners remains the financial adviser for Venezuela's debt restructuring, the country's top economic adviser Calixto Ortega told Reuters on October 16 on the sidelines of the IMF and World Bank annual meetings in Bangkok. "We are very happy with them," Ortega said, adding that he had held discussions with the firm this week.
Venezuela announced in May that it had hired Centerview as its financial adviser after launching a restructuring of its sovereign debt and that of state oil firm PDVSA. In June, it was reported that US investment bank Lazard was bidding to try to replace Centerview. Ortega told Reuters Centerview remained very much involved in the restructuring process.
Earlier this week, Ortega said Venezuela was hoping to publish a debt sustainability analysis "very soon", but the process has been more challenging than expected. The restructuring of the country's estimated $150 billion to $200 billion debt pile could be the largest in history and is complicated by a unique web of creditors. (GSM, based on Reuters reporting)
