Harbinger Proceeds with Re-Org Plan for Asarco
| May 27th, 2009 | ||
| Harbinger Capital Partners has been given permission by a U.S. bankruptcy court to proceed with the filing of a reorganization plan for Asarco, a bankrupt U.S. copper mining company. According to an article from Reuters, Harbinger, which is the top holder of Asarco’s bonds, must provide assurance that “it is not a ‘bottom feeder.’” Last week, the hedge fund manager submitted a $500 million offer for the company. Harbinger must now compete with Sterlite Industries, which has submitted a bid that has been supported by Grupo Mexico, Asarco’s parent company. | ||
