Monday, April 2, 2012, 9:28 AM Hartford Financial (HIG) +1.4% premarket after announcing it will pay $2.43B to buy back debt and warrants issued to Allianz (AZSEY.PK). The U.S. insurance company turned to Allianz, Germany’s largest insurer, for capital in 2008, agreeing to pay 10% on $1.75B of debt as capital markets froze; today's move allows HIG to replace the $1.75B it owes with new debt at a lower cost.

An Italian default or exit from the euro coupled with devaluation would leave the group with devastated assets, but no fall in liabilities. 1 Comment [Global & FX, Financials]

Sunday, July 24, 2011, 8:26 AM A report in Die Welt says German financial firms were prepared to accept a far higher write-down on their Greek paper than the 21% eventually agreed to.
