Virtual Event: Russia- Banking and Corporate Restructuring Outlook

On 27 April we hosted a virtual event as part of Debtwire Emerging Markets webinars series on Russia: Banking and Corporate Restructuring Outlook.

Nickolay Ivin, Managing Director at ZIFF-IVIN Associates, Markus Schiller, Head of DACH and CEE at Datasite, Ashley Messick, Partner at GPW Sovereign Debt Advisors and Laura Brank, Managing Partner at Head of the Russia Practice at Dechert, sat down to discuss the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 for Russian investors, highlighting challenges and opportunities. The full outcome of the crisis remains to be seen, however. Closures of small retail and entertainment businesses will likely increase NPL levels in local banks, while transportation, oil and gas, and metals and mining businesses have all been affected during the pandemic.

Main topics of the conversation were:

  • Debt restructuring outlook for banking, metals and mining and oil & gas sectors
  • Investor appetite for refinancing second-tier issues
  • Sanction risks and their impact on the ability of Russian issuers to raise new debt on international markets
  • Restructuring remotely and the role of technology, including lessons learned for distressed M&A deals and dealmakers
  • The changing NPL landscape and how technology can improve your position
