"The Vulture Investors" untersucht die obskure und dramatische Investion in finanzschwache Unternehmen und stellt die jeweiligen risikofreudigen Anleger vor, die sich auf diese Anlagemöglichkeit spezialisiert haben. Vor dem Hintergrund einiger großer Konkurse Ende der 80er und Anfang der 90er Jahre erläutert der Autor die Anlagetechniken dieser schillernden Spekulanten Schritt für Schritt. Er vermittelt dem Leser jedoch nicht nur deren Beweggründe und Methoden, sondern erklärt, wie wichtig diese Spekulanten für die Wiederbelebung der Konjunktur sind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial innovation, new laws and regulations, and the financial meltdown of 2007–2008 are just a few of the forces that have shaped, and continue to shape, today's distress investment environment. Combine this with the fact that the discipline of distress investing doesn't always follow what conventional wisdom says, and you can see why it is one of the most challenging areas in finance. Nobody understands this better than Martin Whitman—the legendary founder of Third Avenue Management LLC and a pioneer in the field of distressed markets—and leading academic Dr. Fernando Diz of Syracuse University. That's why they decided to write Distress Investing. As an outgrowth of annual distress and value investing seminars the two have taught together at Syracuse University's Martin J. Whitman School of Management, this reliable resource will help you gain a better understanding of the essential principles and techniques associated with distress investing and show you how to effectively apply them in the real world. Divided into four comprehensive parts—the General Landscape of Distress Investing, Restructuring Troubled Issuers, the Investment Process, and Cases and Implications for Public Policy—this book comprehensively covers the practice of buy-and-hold investing in distressed credits, whether it be performing loans or the reinstated issues of a reorganized issuer. From the recent changes to U.S. bankruptcy code and creditor rights to cash bailouts, you'll quickly learn how to analyze distressed situations such as pricing issues, arbitrage opportunities, tax disadvantages, and the reorganization of funding plans. Along the way, case studies of both large and small distress investing deals—from Kmart to Home Products International—will give you a better perspective of the business. Critical topics addressed throughout these pages include: Chapter 11 bankruptcy and why it's not considered an ending, but rather a beginning when it comes to distress investing The "Five Basic Truths" of distress investing The difficulty of due diligence for distressed issues Distress investing risks—from reorganization risk to risk associated with the alteration of priority of payments in bankruptcy Valuing companies by both going concern as well as their resource conversion attributes In today's turbulent economic environment, distress investing presents some enticing opportunities. Put yourself in a better position to excel at this endeavor with Distress Investing as your guide.

Journal of High Yield Bond Research This comprehensive new study examines the impact of the 1978 Bankruptcy Reform Act on firms that file under Chapter 11 and on investors who own shares or bonds in financially distressed corporations. Demonstrating that high average returns often accompany wise investment choices concerning bankrupt firms, the authors explain how to spot potential investment targets, assess investment risk, and profit from investing in firms undergoing reorganization following a bankruptcy filing. The legal issues involved in investing in bankrupt firms, the environment within which the bankrupt firm operates, and the relationship between stock market efficiency and bankrupt firms also receive thorough coverage. Both individual and institutional investors looking for new investment opportunities and students of corporate finance and financial management will find here important new insights into the investment potential of financially distressed firms. The volume begins with an introduction which sets the stage for the discussion that follows by describing the reasons for the increasing rates of corporate bankruptcy in the 1980s. The authors go on to explore the incentives for investing in bankrupt firms and offer pointers for investors considering such a move. In order to provide the reader with the tools necessary to evaluate potential investment opportunities, the authors also describe the reasons for corporate financial failure, the effects of reorganization on a firm, the differences between old and new bankruptcy laws, and the legal settlement of bankruptcy claims. An analytical model for predicting successful reorganization--and thus a potentially lucrative investment target--is described and illustrated as are models of stock market efficiency. The study concludes with four detailed case studies that illustrate the process of bankruptcy and the possible investment outcomes. The text is accompanied by numerous explanatory tables and figures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed and compelling look at distressed securities investing in today’s market In the corporate world, “vulture” investors in distressed securities serve the same cleanup function as vultures do in the natural world: they deal with failing companies, digest bad debt, and mop up after bankruptcies. Since this market’s structural and legal complexities create greater inefficiencies than in other investment fields, it’s a style of investing that can make money during both booms and busts. While recent economic carnage has made opportunities for vulture investors, more convoluted bankruptcies, conflicts of interest, and even government intervention have made this arena harder to negotiate. Nobody understands this better than author George Schultze, founder of Schultze Asset Management. During his successful career as a vulture investor, he’s learned a number of lessons and developed an investment philosophy that has served him well. Now, in The Art of Vulture Investing, Schultze shares his valuable insights and experiences with you. Engaging and informative, this reliable guide offers a bird’s-eye into the opportunities and risks associated with vulture investing. And while it may not always be pretty, you’ll see exactly why this process is necessary for our economic ecosystem. Throughout this book, Schultze explains the theory and strategy of vulture investing in clear and lively prose, illustrating each concept with examples from his own varied experience that show how the landscape has changed in recent years. Offers valuable information on distressed securities investing since the 2007-2009 financial crisis Examines the opportunities and dilemmas for modern vulture investors Includes in-depth case studies of high-profile bankruptcies, including those of Chrysler Automotive and Tropicana Casinos and Resorts By its very nature, investing in distressed companies can be a complicated and risky business. But once the dust settles, these investments can yield extraordinary profits. The Art of Vulture Investing puts this discipline in perspective and shows you how to excel at this difficult, yet rewarding, endeavor.
