Some lenders question Dubai's shortfall guarantees - Business Intelligence Middle East - bi-me.com - News, analysis, reports

The issue arose at Dubai World's all-creditor meeting on July 22, creating another hurdle as the group seeks to push through restructuring proposals.

At stake are Dubai's shortfall guarantees to plug any gap left after asset sales to fund the conglomerate's plan to repay US$14.4 billion in bank debt."
