Independent governance, restructuring and insolvency

Services

Objective-focused, title-agnostic

Deep situational experience in distressed and stressed situations
 

We have extensive experience in strengthening management teams, improving governance and leading complex litigation and restructurings, principally in distressed and stressed situations. In addition, and uniquely for an independent firm, we take formal insolvency appointments in either standalone situations or alongside other practitioners, either for a new or existing insolvency

However, the way we see it is that the job title doesn’t really matter - it is merely a label used to achieve a defined stakeholder objective. We bring a task-driven, investor-aligned focus to challenging corporate situations, with a disciplined approach to maximising IRR and minimising risk and time to execution
