Re: Russia is about to default on $150 billion
The government says that all debt will be serviced, though it will happen in rubles as long as sanctions — imposed because of the war — don’t allow dollar settlements. Failure to pay, or paying in local currency instead of dollars, would start the clock ticking on a potential wave of defaults on about $150 billion in foreign-currency debt owed by both the government and Russian companies including Gazprom, Lukoil and Sberbank.

How do I default on a debt if I try to place the money in your hand and you refuse to take it?

Re: Russia is about to default on $150 billion
The USA owes $30 TRILLION.

And it won't be long before we default on that.

It's interesting. All of these virtue signaling leftist scumbags cheering on Russians being banned, Russians having their property illegally seized and having their bank accounts stolen from them.

I wonder how these same asshole Americans are going to feel when the US defaults and China comes calling for every property, every house, every business and every farm to help settle the debt that your country sold you out for.

Monopoly money doesn't mean crap, and that's all the federal government is currently printing.

Shit! I guess there money will lose a lot of value...

They're going to have trouble trading with western nations

Hell... they might even have to consider only trading and working with other countries who won't care

Think they'll be OK? Or will they get random assests seized and face sanctions? Perhaps have to use an alternative system then the current one?

There's much more to it. There's a "major financial services company" heavily invested in Russian debt that could become Bear Stearns 2.0 (and worse due to the fragility of the post-lockdown economy)

Dollar also quickly losing reserve status.

Re: Russia is about to default on $150 billion
Most,if not all assets connected to Russia have been siezed by governments all over the planet.
Removed them from swift and banned their exports in mass.
Do you really think that they give a damn about this default?
They have China, India, and Iran for import/ export and moving funding.

The rest of the world cut them off, why would they pay up?

Consider all debt Russia owed to the west as null and void.
War does that to creditors whom call you the enemy and tries to shut you down...

Russia might just say, "well, you don't want to be paid in rubles? Then fuck you. We're not going to pay any of it back."

Re: Russia is about to default on $150 billion
from a CNN article Monday afternoon

Russia has sent the clearest signal yet that it will soon default ...

The default could come as early as Wednesday, when Moscow needs to hand over $117 million in interest payments on dollar-denominated government bonds, according to JPMorgan Chase.
....
But the potential consequences of a default are difficult to gauge. The 2008 global financial crisis and the coronavirus pandemic showed how negative shocks can spread across the modern interconnected global financial system and economy.
...
But analysts at Capital Economics warned that one major financial institution might be particularly exposed to Russian debt, which could cause broader financial contagion. A second risk is that a default could trigger missed payments by Russian companies.

Re: Russia is about to default on $150 billion
I am not on Russia’s side but them defaulting is more a problem for=r the guys you lent the money, unless of course Russia needs to borrow more from these, or like minded, institutions in the near future.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79302659


How many times has Greece defaulted on their debt? Many times, and they always come back and European banks lend to them.

The whole world is addicted to debt. If you declare bankruptcy just wait a few years and offers for credit cards will magically appear in your mailbox.

As long as the majority of people don't figure this out, the game goes on. As soon as the majority does figure this out, it's game over.

Yawn..looks like we got idiots with no education. Try paying that debt off with a ruble dollar that is worth 1 penny of the U.S. dollar or equivalent western currency of other nations. Suddenly that 150 billion is like 150 trillion.

Many suit cases of cash? Seriously though, the action through Swift impacted only those banks that don't deal with the gas and oil. Convenient, eh?

Hypocrisy at its best

How can the United States say anything when it's bankrupt.

For the newbies out there?

There is no way the United States pays off its debts. I wonder what a bankrupt Nation looks like? But I guess we can use the old Russia and Colombia as an example.

It's not a default when one is cut off from their ability to pay.
