The last credit cycle has seen a huge expansion in riskier forms of credit. But just how risky are they?

Legal expert Belle Yang, Senior Legal Analyst, CreditSights, will cover the evolution in bond issuance and changes in structuring over the last credit cycle and how they may effect chances of default and recoveries. Belle will highlight the key issues that debt investors need to be aware of as the cycle turns.
