Proposed ruling addresses restructuring problem debt

Article Abstract:

Lending institutions may increase foreclosure activities if a proposed rule by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is approved. The FASB rule would require immediate write-downs of debt-restructurings at fair market value, and this requirement could cause lenders to foreclose rather than restructure loans. In addition, the FASB rule could accelerate the recognition of losses attributed to 'impaired loans.'
