- Buchheit On Cyprus: “The Situation Is Spiralling Down”, And Why A Second Bailout May Be Needed!
by Tyler Durden, www.zerohedge.com
When the world’s leading expert on Sovereign debt restructurings believes that the endgame for Cyprus might be another round of restructuring, adding that “I’m not sure this is over,” it is important to listen. With the calmness in Cyprus today more reflective of paralysis than confidence, Lee Buchheit senses that the parameters of how much money will be needed to recapitalize the banks have changed. He tells Bloomberg TV’s Lee Pacchia in this brief clip, “the situation is spiraling down… they’ll need more money because the economy is worse, tax collections less, deposits will flow out when they can flow out.” As for which European nation will be next in need of assistance with its sovereign debt burdens? Buchheit agrees with us that while many are looking to Slovenia, he sees real economic and political problems in both Italy and Spain remaining especially since the EU “have certainly changed the rules of the game.”
