Debt (bondholders) and equity (shareholders) investors generally have different priorities, but their interests align in times of financial distress.
Why A (Insolvency risk) is correct:
If a company faces insolvency, both debt and equity investors want stability and restructuring to avoid losses.
Both groups engage with management to push for financial recovery.
Why not B or C?
B (Capital restructuring) may benefit one group over the other.
C (High credit rating) means fewer financial concerns, reducing the need for alignment.
