Greek investors to decide on debt swap | Business
A partir de la liste des banques participantes issues du fichier IIF en date du 8 août, Investigationfin avait estimé 63 milliards d'euros de participation des créanciers privés, soit 47 % seulement des 135 milliards d'euros attendus dans la cadre du second plan d'aide à la Grèce annoncé en grande pompe le 21 juillet 2011. http://investigationfin.canalblog.com/archives/2011/08/13/21784969.html Depuis quelques jours les articles pleuvent sur le sujet de l'insuffisance de la participation des créanciers privés au programme d'échange volontaire. http://www.lesechos.fr/entreprises-secteurs/finance-marches/actu/reuters_00374018-la-grece-veut-des-details-au-plus-vite-sur-l-echange-de-dette-211536.php La Grèce attend une réponse des banques au plus tard le 9 septembre.
Grèce. Programme d'échange volontaire. Investigationfin vous l'avait dit avant !
Collateral Thinking
The eurozone's embarrassing collateral-for-loans spat continues , with member states disagreeing over whether Finland should be allowed to get collateral from Greece in return for giving Athens fresh loans. Who should guarantee the guarantees remains the thorny question. To re-cap: Under a special deal with Greece, agreed on the sidelines of the 21st July summit, Finland would get collateral of some form, in a bid to appease taxpayers at home. The exact nature of the collateral wasn't agreed, and as it turned out, the creditor countries had very different interpretations of the exact meaning of the deal. It was almost as if they hadn't thought it through properly (shock horror!)...Demands for collateral could leave Greek bailout in ruins.

Photograph: Petros Giannakouris/AP For Greek politicians, the past month must have been a blessed relief, as the centre of Europe 's sovereign debt crisis moved elsewhere. Italian trade unionists are gearing up for a general strike against austerity measures; Nicolas Sarkozy is slapping a supertax on the super-rich; and Spain is promising to make it unconstitutional to let the public finances get out of control. But as September rolls around and the beaches clear, Greece is once again the focus of financial markets' fears.
Finland's demands for collateral could leave Greek bailout in ruins | Business | The Observer
Nicolas Sarkozy: 'Our ambition is to seize the Greek crisis to make a quantum leap in eurozone government.' Photograph: Eric Feferberg/AFP/Getty Images European leaders have sealed a new €109bn bailout for Greece and erected defences against the debt crisis spreading to Italy and Spain by turning the eurozone's 15-month-old bailout fund into a much more ambitious instrument resembling an infant European monetary fund. The deal, hatched at an emergency summit in Brussels of eurozone leaders, following months of dithering and division, also entailed large losses for Athens' private creditors, making it almost certain that Greece would become the first eurozone country to be deemed to be in some form of default on its sovereign debt. A 16-point blueprint provided for a vast expansion in the role and powers of the €440bn bailout fund established in May last year.
