Update, not recommendation
Q
Lots of “ifs” in your article “Puerto Rico: Unable or Unwilling?” Existing bonds insured by AGC and maybe National might pay off if we’re lucky. Payment for COFINA bonds are due Aug. 1. Puerto Rico’s debt is “CCC-” on its own. There are better opportunities out there, even Chicago!
