Lawyers Buchheit and Gulati who advised Greece's government on the bond restructuring deal in March 2012

06/30/2011

Buchheit and Gulati helped Greece achieve the bondholder write-off deal through the legal mechanism of writing a collective action clause. This was possible because Greece's bonds to private investors were issued under Greek law. Collective action clauses make it possible to ensure a deal is made even if some private investors reject it. A haircut for private investors with a bond swap was designed to reduce Greece's debt to a sustainable level.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
