The Government has extended the deadline for its domestic debt exchange programme to January 31.
This according to the state is to deepen stakeholder engagement on the proposed policy which is crucial to securing a bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Individual bondholders say the extension is in the right direction as they are not willing yet to sacrifice their hard-earned money for the programme.
But Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta says while his outfit is willing to make meet the citizens halfway, something has to give.
On the back of this, Newsfile is discussing the way forward on the topic ‘Broke creditor, broke debtor in a broke economy: Managing the obligatory voluntary debt exchange'.
