SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Fremont General Corp.
FMT said late Thursday that it plans to delay interest payments on some of the debt issued by a trust unit as the lender struggles to recover from subprime mortgage problems last year. The payments will be deferred on Fremont's junior subordinated debentures and related 9% trust originated preferred securities, the company said. Fremont "has significant liquidity risk as a result of limited sources of cash available to satisfy its obligations," the company explained. It's now working with its investment-banking advisors Credit Suisse and Sandler O'Neill to explore strategic alternatives including raising capital, restructuring debt and the possible sale of the company, Fremont added.
