Market Chatter: Braskem Creditors Balk at Restructuring Proposal Ahead of Deadline
MT newswire2026/10/07 22:5406:54 PM EDT, 10/07/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Braskem's (BAK) creditors balked another restructuring proposal as the company faces an Oct. 9 deadline to rework about $11 billion of debt, Bloomberg reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Shareholders offered about $1 billion in fresh capital, but only if Braskem significantly reduces its debt, according to the report. Creditors viewed the terms as insufficient, Bloomberg said. A deal by the deadline is seen as unlikely, with creditors potentially able to seek an end to the out-of-court process that could lead to bankruptcy, Bloomberg said. Braskem did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment. (Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
