A number of Puerto Rico’s bondholders are meeting in New York this week to discuss the increasingly real possibility that they may not be paid back. Like Detroit before it, Puerto Rico has been spiraling toward default for years now, but unlike Detroit, Puerto Rico’s status as a territory will make it legally impossible for the island to enter bankruptcy. Instead, it’s beginning to look likely that that the island could issue a moratorium on its debt repayments until it figures its situation out. Unfortunately, Puerto Rico’s debt crisis is so bad, that it’s not clear what more the government can actually do to fix it, and the Supreme Court’s hesitation to allow pension reform isn’t helping.
