Detroit Swap settlement- The City of Detroit late Monday entered into a proposed settlement with UBS and Bank of America Merrill Lynch to pay off a controversial debt deal called swaps, which helped plunge Detroit into bankruptcy.
The city and the global banks are offering to settle the $293-million debt by paying the banks $85 million.
The latest agreement is $80 million less than the most recent settlement, which was rejected by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes in January.
