Abstract
⺠Sovereign renegotiation is much shorter for bond debt than for bank debt since 1990. ⺠Bond debt is traded on secondary markets, while bank debt is illiquid. ⺠Trading helps reveal information of creditors and shortens renegotiations. ⺠Bond financing increases ex ante welfare under severe information friction.
