The economic cycle can produce seismic shifts in the outlook for individual businesses and can destroy value at speed. The task of understanding how best to protect and then maximise what value remains is made all the more complex by the interconnected nature of cross-border business.
We offer a wide range of services to professionals, companies and their stakeholders to meet the challenge. Deploying our global capability, we help diagnose and address underperformance and devise workable solutions that maximise value and deliver a sustainable recovery.
We have significant experience advising clients on restructuring and insolvency issues. Our team provide expert advice in the following areas:
In the early stages of a turnaround the right support is necessary to create financial stability, assess cashflow and identify opportunities to improve short-term liquidity. Through diagnostic analysis, we provide stakeholders with a clear understanding of the causes of underperformance and the strategic opportunities for the business - both crucial when assessing turnaround potential.
We provide advice and manage transactions associated with the acquisition or disposal of distressed assets or businesses.
We apply a tailored methodology and fully project-manage and implement the sale or closure of underperforming or non-core corporate entities at maximum value.
If a company finds itself in a situation of crisis or insolvency and a formal procedure is necessary to carry out a restructuring, we provide consultancy and support in order to identify the best solution that allows the company to recover and return to a situation of business continuity. There are numerous tools available. We can assist the entrepreneur from the easiest Negotiated Settlement of the Crisis, to the most incisive and judicial instruments, such as for example: the Composition with Creditors and the Debt Restructuring Agreement, including in the latter cases, if necessary, the Tax and Contribution Settlement of debts towards public administrations.
Asset recovery and tracing normally form part of formal insolvency processes such as liquidations, or are carried out in support of on-going litigation or fraud investigations. We use creative approaches to identify and recover misappropriated assets, to provide cost-effective value recovery.
Our multi-disciplinary operational and financial restructuring specialists provide support to realise significant business process improvement, implement new business strategies, divest non-core businesses and design new capital structures aligned to the dynamics of the business.
We provide a range of services aimed at the financial markets and insurance sectors, including advice on the restructuring and exit strategies associated with both solvent and insolvent situations.
We provide specialist advice on the raising and refinancing of debt. Through our deep understanding of the funding landscape and detailed knowledge of the credit process, we devise tailored funding solutions as part of a sustainable capital structure in line with the strategic ambition of our clients.
