Why would an investor willingly buy the debt of a company in distress? When a firm is struggling, its bonds often trade far below par. The risk of further losses can be significant, making this corner of the market seem at first like a place for only the boldest investors. Yet distressed investing is a well-established and often highly successful strategy. What signals real value in a troubled company’s business, assets, or capital structure? How can carefully selected investments generate returns even in the shadow of bankruptcy? Larry Zicklin (BBA, ’57) leads a conversation with Dov Gertzulin (BBA, ’01; left), Managing Principal of DG Capital Management, LLC, an experienced investor with deep expertise in distressed and special situations investing, and Zicklin Assistant Professor William Organek (Department of Law; right). They will explore how investors evaluate distressed firms, navigate risk, and identify opportunities in some of the market’s most uncertain environments. Dean Bruce Weber offers introductory remarks, and Associate Dean Gwendolyn Webb moderates the audience Q&A.
