Abstract: Abstract Recently, the Financial Times reported that Brazilian officials have begun intensive discussions with foreign bankers and government on the country’s radical plan to convert half its 68 billion dollars (41 billion pounds) debt into tradeable securities.… Under the Brazilian plan, which officials say is subject to negotiation in order to make it more acceptable to banks, about 30 billion dollars of existing bank debt would be converted dollar for dollar into (fixed interest) bearer securities with a maturity of about 35 years.1
