The tribunal ruled it lacked jurisdiction because the funds could not be considered US investors with protected investments under NAFTA, as they had acquired the bonds through subsidiaries in the Cayman Islands. The tribunal also ordered the US funds to pay Mexico a "considerable" amount for arbitration expenses and costs.CEOWORLD magazineSheinbaum vs. Salinas Pliego: How Politics and Finance Collide in Mexico’s $4 Billion StandoffMexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum has escalated her dispute with billionaire Ricardo Salinas Pliego, accusing him of tax avoidance and outstanding liabilities totaling approximately 74 billion pesos (~$4 billion), while meeting with US creditors of his TV Azteca company over a $400 million note default from 2021. The creditors Cyrus Capital Partners and Contrarian Capital Partners have been pressing for engagement, arguing that Mexican courts have obstructed their claims in arbitration proceedings. The standoff represents a test of Mexico's fiscal governance and investor confidence, with implications for the country's borrowing costs and capital inflows depending on how Sheinbaum balances enforcement against domestic elites with respect for creditor rights.PR NewswireWAYNE'S 400 DEVON PARK DRIVE EMERGES AS INQ 400, A FULL-SERVICE LIFE SCIENCES FACILITYMainstreet Capital Partners, in a joint venture with Contrarian Capital Management, acquired the property at 400 Devon Park Drive in Wayne, Pennsylvania in June 2021 and is redeveloping it into a Class A life sciences facility called INQ 400.
