Some of McDermott International Inc.’s bondholders are hiring advisers and agreeing to restrict their trading so they can get access to confidential information and begin weighing options for the troubled U.S. engineering firm.
A bondholder group controlling about 30% of McDermott’s $1.3 billion of bonds is organizing with law firm Paul Weiss Rifkind Wharton & Garrison LLP and Houlihan Lokey, an investment bank that specializes in restructurings, according a person with knowledge of the matter.
