The Government claims that indebted but viable companies can survive. Just 15 days after the International Monetary Fund and the European Commission asked for changes favoring debt refinancing viable businesses but in smoke , the economy minister , Luis de Guindos , said Tuesday in Brussels that the Executive intends to adopt "in the coming weeks," a new financial law to ease the debt burden faced by Spanish companies and avoid the liquidation of companies with a solid business plan . The new text will facilitate the conversion of debt into capital the creditor of the company becomes shareholder - and try to offer alternatives to companies that , under the current rules , are forced into liquidation.
"In many cases, bankruptcy proceedings leading to the settlement and this is not always the best option and it the last resort ," the minister pointed out at the end of the Eurogroup meeting at the EU capital. Therefore Guindos has said that the reform that seeks to launch the Executive is aimed at " trying to look for other alternatives that are much more reasonable from the point of view of the employees , creditors , shareholders , managers and the whole economy . "
Executive Diagnosis is based on the premise that many Spanish companies are viable and profitable, but accumulated a crippling debt volume activity. Under the current statutory scheme , the minister has described as " too rigid " , these companies are not out of their situation . To avoid this, Economy intended restructuring processes are expedited . " If you do not produce , nor creditors will charge or the business will continue and will end up losing everyone " warned Guindos , who expects the new regulations to achieve " align different interests and, at the end , everyone benefits . "
The government wanted further away one of the fears of the European Commission and the IMF regarding a possible restructuring of the debt of nonfinancial Spanish companies : the banks affected. According to the Ministry of Economy , legal change is not going to translate into an extra burden on the already damaged financial sector because it already has enough supplies .
The reform goes in the same direction as the changes in bankruptcy law adopted in September , when the Executive lowered the percentage of creditors whose favorable vote is required to initiate a restructuring of the liabilities of the company ( 75% to 55 % ) . In practice, both as the Minister has announced today as adopted at the time they are in the sense of relieving the debt burden endured by Spanish companies. The private sector debt at the end of 2012 amounted to 133% of GDP, compared to 120 % recorded in 2006 and above the average in the eurozone.
