I am proud to be speaking at the IMN 2nd Annual Investors’ Conference on Greek and Cypriot NPLs. This year title will be “Establishing a Secondary Market”.
The event will take place in Athens on 8 February 2019.
In the panel on Improving NPL Liquidity: The Role of Government Guarantee Schemes and the Creation of a “Bad Bank” Michael Haralabidis, Chief Risk Officer, Hellenic Financial Stability Fund, Mario Cortesi,Head of Distressed Credit, Quaestio Capital Management and myself will address the following questions:
- Has the NPL Law provided the necessary framework for a robust secondary loan market or has it created additional unintended impediments?
- Would a scheme similar to that of Italy’s “GACS” programme work in Greece? Why or why not?
- Would a government backed scheme aid in attracting a larger and more diverse investor base?
- What structural reforms are still needed to foster a healthy secondary NPL market?
- How might political instability further dampen market liquidity? Will the government continue to support the market?
