Deep dives
Restructuring Activity and Lack of Opportunities
The pandemic has resulted in a lack of restructuring activity due to an abundance of lenders and too few opportunities. This has led to a sluggish restructuring cycle, particularly for middle-market and larger companies. Many deals are being done with no covenants, reminiscent of the 2006-2007 cycle, which could pose risks in the long run.
