An investor identifies a 'Fulcrum Security' in a distressed company's capital structure.
What does this indicate?
- It is a specialized insurance policy that guarantees debt repayment in the event of default.
- It is the senior-most debt tranche that has the power to block any restructuring plan.
- It is the class of debt most likely to be converted into equity during a reorganization because the company's value ends at that layer.
- It is the common equity, which retains all upside potential once the debt is refinanced.
