Brazil telecoms regulator Anatel still against Oi restructuring plan

Creditors are set to meet in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday to vote on a company plan to restructure some 65 billion reais ($19.6 billion) in debt.

A negative vote by Anatel, which holds 14 billion reais in the carrier's debt through regulatory fines, could complicate the process, but the plan would still have a path to approval given its broad support among other major creditors.
