BUENOS AIRES, Jan 11 (Reuters) - The governor of the central Argentine province of Cordoba, Juan Schiaretti, said on Monday an agreement had been reached with creditors to restructure around $1.7 billion in debt as the country battles an enduring recession worsened by COVID-19.
The country’s second most important province after Buenos Aires in terms of contribution to GDP has been locked in lengthy negotiations with bondholders including the Ad Hoc group which holds more than 50% of foreign-held debt but had rejected several previous proposals.
On Monday night, Schiaretti announced a breakthrough with investors.
“We are the first Argentine province that has managed to restructure its debt without entering into default,” he wrote on his Twitter account.

BUENOS AIRES, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Argentine province Entre Rios said it “regrets” that creditors have sued in the U.S. federal courts over its failure to pay a coupon that was due on Aug. 8, 2020, the provincial government said in a statement seen by Reuters on Wednesday.
The province is restructuring about $500 million in bonds after Argentina’s national government revamped more than $100 billion in sovereign obligations last year, with a high rate of investor acceptance of the deal.
Entre Rios said in the statement it “regrets that investors have designated a New York law firm as their interlocutor instead of a financial advisor as is market practice.”

During the presidential campaign, Joe Biden blamed President Trumpâs âincompetence and neglectâ for the loss of U.S. sway in Latin America. The implication was that waning American influence in the region could be reversed by a president who paid more attention to the countryâs neighbors.
Good luck with that. It is true that American values of sound money, low taxes, a light regulatory touch, open markets and the rule of law are no longer in vogue in much of the region. But beyond setting a better example, itâs hard to think of U.S. actions that would make a difference. Unless Mr. Biden plans to champion an aggressive new free-trade agenda for the hemisphereâsomething his
