Corporate recovery & insolvency

Global business is entering a very unstable and uncertain period. Although a strong CEO can and should plan for economic cycles, many would not have predicted or planned for the global economic slowdown we are now experiencing.

As the circle turns, many organisations will start to see the implications and potentially become victims of the slowdown. As the market changes, businesses need to realign their priorities and short-term direction to deal with the challenges.

RSM International’s member firms have teams of corporate restructuring experts who have experience working with company directors, financial institutions, turnaround professionals and venture capitalists, providing specialist corporate restructuring advice and assistance.

If your organisation is experiencing a period of underperformance (due to the economic slowdown or other reasons), it is vital that you seek the best specialist support available. In our experience early identification of a problem coupled with prompt and professional advice means that in many cases administration or liquidation can be avoided.  Services to companies and individuals includes:

• Turnaround solutions - comprehensive turnaround strategies from performance improvement management and working capital management to financial modelling and business planning.
• Debt advisory - debt advisory related services, including: distressed mergers and acquisition, debt and equity rescheduling, crisis cash management and assisting with negotiations with current and potential financiers.
• Exit strategies – providing advice and determining the preferred outcome including formal appointments, solvent exits, business sales and cross border capabilities.
• Corporate insolvency – formal insolvency services including: administration, company voluntary arrangement and liquidation and administrative receiverships.
