AFP: Kuwait's Global Investment seeks debt moratorium

Kuwait's Global Investment House requested its creditors Thursday to delay repayment of debt due in December citing ongoing challenges in the financial markets.

"Global requested the lending banks? support for the near-term deferral of principal repayments due in December 2011 and deferral of any increase in rate of interest from December 2011 onwards," the company said following a meeting with creditors.

Under a restructuring plan signed in December 2009, Global was expected to repay more than $340 million of debt plus interest.
