A joint statement from the government and the GSIA indicated that the requirement would require increasing the terms of the Domestic Debt Exchange Program (DDEP) agreed with the banks for all GSIA members.
Also, Collective Investment Schemes (CIS) and individuals who have bonds in Trust Accounts with companies approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), will be offered commercial terms agreed upon, or exemptions granted to Individual Bondholders.
According to GSIA, this agreement is necessary to restore market normality and confidence in the economy. GSIA urges members to obtain all necessary internal approvals and client consents to participate in the DDEP in accordance with the new requirements in the updated Exchange Memorandum.
