Hyundai Division to Extend Debt

Hyundai Engineering & Construction Co. will begin talks next month to extend maturities and reduce interest rates on more than $900 million worth of bonds the builder has issued in foreign markets.

"Hyundai has designated a global consultant, Lazard, as lead manager to negotiate a debt readjustment with the builder's foreign lenders," an official at a creditor bank said Tuesday. "Hyundai will give a contract to Lazard this week."

According to creditors, Hyundai has issued $920 million worth of bonds in foreign markets. Foreign financial institutions hold a $660 million chunk of that total and local financial institutions hold the rest in convertible bonds and bonds with warrants.
