OVERVIEW:
iiBIG’s Mid-Year 2012 DISTRESSED & TURNAROUND INVESTMENT FORUM (June 4, 2012 at the Wit Hotel in Chicago) is taking place at an historical crossroads for opportunity investing. Join the boldest leaders in this industry at this year’s Mid-Year 2012 event in Chicago to learn where the greatest opportunities exist.

Once in a Generation Opportunity?
Whoever said, “When there is blood in the streets, buy assets,” could have been talking about today’s economic environment. According to news reports distressed debt deals are growing at an unprecedented rate.

While the market is clamoring for capital, bank lenders have only recently begun to emerge tentatively from the sidelines. The result: (1) Private Equity sponsors are looking for alternatives to sustain and grow their portfolio companies; (2) Hedge Funds and other sources of non-bank capital are filling the gap and seizing market opportunities; and (3) Distressed Real Estate Funds are becoming more aggressive players. Who else is getting into the game to take advantage of this once-in-a-generation opportunity?

WHO IS COMING, AND WHAT WILL BE DISCUSSED?
iiBIG’s Mid-Year 2012 Distressed & Turnaround Investment Forum unites distressed debt, turnaround and restructuring professionals from both the buy-side and sell-side of the market. Our distinguished list of expert speakers and panelists will provide a comprehensive analysis of market dynamics to assist YOU in making decisions about the distressed market.
