io ho scritto una mail all'amico sokos di BNP per chiedere chiarimenti. non si sa mai, mi risponde
anche se il suo punto di vista, conta un pò come il due di spade a briscola
ecco qui la risposta di Sokos che concorda con me che il tutto sia assurdo...
Dear Mr Sokos,
I have read the attached recent report you published on the Greek PSI on 22 February and I would like to ask you a clarification, if I may.
I refer to page 3 when you say "According to the IIF press release, for each eligible privately held Greek government bond, investors will get 20 new Greek government bonds with maturities of 11 to 30 years, replicating an amortisation of 5% per annum (equal notional) commencing in 2023"
A) Does this mean that any GGB bondholder (small or large) will receive 20 different bonds in exchange of those (one or more) in its portfolio today? (i.e. 20 different ISINs)
B) Is this applicable also to retail investors in case they will be involved in the PSI through CAC?
C) In case answer of B is yes, what could happen to a retail investor holding, for example, only 5000 EUR in nominal value?
Will he receive 20 different bonds with a nominal value of just c.79 EUR? ((5000 x 31.5%)) / 20) = 79
I believe that this is just crazy if will be the reality.
How could a small retail investor pay deposit fees higher than 50 EUR to hold 20 micro bonds of less than 100 EUR and pay 20 fees (usually fixed for small amounts like the example) instead of 1 to sell those bonds on the market?
(I have sincerely never seen somethingh like this in the financial market and I hope to have misunderstood somethingh)
Many thanks for your consideration.
Kind regards,

Dear ,
a & b) We still don't have the official terms so we can only guess. I am guessing that yes, all investors will get the exact same deal irrespective of their holdings or outstanding amount.
c) Very good point. The offer document will have to do something on that. Generally they will not want denominations out there less than, say $1000. Agree that is crazy and should be accommodated for.
