纽约一名联邦法官撤销了其2023年的裁决，该裁决曾命令阿根廷就2012年对石油公司YPF的征收行为支付超过160亿美元，案件在初审法院层面已结案，而诉讼资助方Burford Capital正寻求美国最高法院审查。
A federal judge in New York has vacated her 2023 ruling that ordered Argentina to pay more than $16 billion over the 2012 expropriation of oil company YPF, closing the case at trial-court level while litigation funder Burford Capital seeks Supreme Court review.
纽约联邦法官洛雷塔·普雷斯卡撤销了其2023年的判决，该判决曾命令阿根廷就2012年对石油公司YPF多数股权的征收行为支付超过160亿美元，正式结案于初审法院层面。
A federal judge in New York, Loretta Preska, has vacated her 2023 judgment that ordered Argentina to pay more than $16 billion over the 2012 expropriation of a majority stake in oil company YPF, formally closing the case at the trial-court level.
该诉讼源于阿根廷2012年国有化YPF 51%股权，少数股东Petersen Energía和Eton Park认为这违反了公司章程，因为跳过了强制性要约收购。该诉讼由Burford Capital资助，该公司有望从任何赔付中获得大部分份额。上诉法院此前已认定普雷斯卡的法院无权扣押阿根廷的YPF股份以支付赔偿金，促成了最新这一步骤。
The lawsuit stemmed from Argentina's 2012 nationalization of a 51% stake in YPF, which minority shareholders Petersen Energía and Eton Park argued breached the company's own bylaws by skipping a mandatory tender offer. The litigation was financed by Burford Capital, which stood to collect a large share of any payout. An appeals court had already found Preska's court lacked jurisdiction to seize Argentina's YPF shares to satisfy the award, prompting the latest step.
该案的命运现在掌握在美国最高法院手中，Burford Capital于10月初请求最高法院受理此案。受理此案或让下级法院的裁决维持不变的决定，将影响阿根廷最终面临的风险敞口程度，以及投资者如何定价该国的主权和公司风险。
The case's fate now rests with the US Supreme Court, which Burford Capital asked in early October to take up the dispute. A decision to hear the case, or to let the lower-court outcome stand, would shape how much exposure Argentina ultimately faces and how investors price the country's sovereign and corporate risk.
