    I dont understand why an aussie bank does not buy the remaining 115M shares from DB at 0.05, and make an offer to BNB's administrators for their 8% at 0.05 and then ensure that BBI does not get swallowed by corporate debt - i.e. oversee sales.

    The bank/s would refinance BBI's corporate debt or anything they need to keep them afloat at 11%

    the banks would make a killing over 2 years
    also BBI's cashflow would maybe not be as diminished if only one asset sale was required.

    rough figures

    total expenditure to buy shares 15M
    loan BBI possibly 500M at 11%

    interest received 55M p.a.

    shares would be worth approx 65c in 2 years time


    in 2011
    110M received in interest payments
    195M new value of shares
    5M in divs

    total
    300M

    not bad over 2 years as a return for loaning 500M and outlaying 15m in shares
