Situation Solved or not
Now situation has become critical and Greece debt has increases to 370bn. We consider the three broad options open to Greece, the EU and the IMF: no restructuring (essentially an extension of EU/IMF loans), voluntary restructuring and a hard restructuring event. Our conclusion is that a voluntary restructuring is the most likely outcome.
