Argentina reached preliminary accords with two of the six biggest creditors that successfully sued the country over its $95 billion default in 2001 yet the leader of the so-called holdout funds, billionaire Paul Singer’s Elliott Management, wasn’t among them.

Montreux Partners LP and Dart Management Inc. accepted the offer, which would settle demands for $9 billion at an average 75 cents on the dollar, depending on the nature of the investor’s claim.
