Policy Workshop: Puerto Rico's Debt Restructuring

This workshop enlists students to evaluate the debt restructuring process that Puerto Rico has followed since 2017, and to work as a team to formulate recommendations to complete it. The first six weeks of the workshop focuses on both the policy decisions that prompted Puerto Rico to file for bankruptcy and the urgent need for then President Barack Obama and the United States Congress to step-in and legislate the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act of 2016 (PROMESA).
