The best and worst of high yield bond covenants

European bond investors: your restricted payment builder baskets are under threat! But also, you’re probably better protected against being J.Screwed than you were in the past.

In this week’s episode of Cloud 9fin, our host Jennifer Munnings digs into the report’s findings with our senior legal consultant Chris Osborne, who co-authored the report with Alice Holian.

They also discuss our recent piece about EG Group’s recent dividend blockers, which you can read here.
