Cloud 9fin

What do you get when a builder basket just keeps building, and building and building? You get a whole basketful of lenders caught off-guard by the massive amount of capacity that Altice France has to designate its subsidiaries as unrestricted, that’s what.

In this week’s episode of Cloud 9fin, editor Dan Alderson, senior legal consultants Chris Osbourne and Freddie Doust, and distressed credit analyst Nathan Mitchell walk through the knowns and unknowns of Altice.

The discussion covers some of the ways the Altice situation is both familiar and novel, nuances of the French jurisdiction, and the many potential pitfalls that management and investors could face along the path to deleveraging the Altice capital structure.
