Disallowance and Subordination of Transferred Claims
Bankruptcy claims traders are currently on the lookout for a decision from the Enron bankruptcy court that could add significant uncertainty to distressed debt markets. The court has under advisement the issue of whether claims sold post-petition are subject to disallowance under ' 502(d) or equitable subordination as a result of pre-petition conduct or receipt of avoidable transfers by the transferor.

Enron also seeks to disallow the banks' claims under ' 502(d). Moreover, Enron seeks to disallow and subordinate claims held by the lenders as of the petition date but subsequently sold to speculative claims buyers.
