Advisory

Corporate

We believe that constant evolution is the difference between flourishing or failing. It’s a fundamental philosophy that underpins our leading-edge strategy services. Put very simply, we help you imagine, deliver and run your future. Our Corporate Consulting services focus on five core pillars:

• Financial Restructuring. One of our focus areas is offering debt restructuring solutions to companies and lenders who wish to exit or rationalize a relationship. Our services include conducting independent financial analysis, providing recommendations to creditors, supporting negotiations between debtors and creditors, assisting in disposal of non-core assets or investments as well as assisting in the development of a business plan and sourcing fresh capital to take the company forward. We are able to provide a multi-disciplinary approach in reviewing an under-performing group or financially stressed fast-growing company, with a view to reducing their financing and operational costs, as well as improving efficiency and enhancing their fund raising capabilities.

• Contingency Planning. We have expert knowledge of formal enforcement procedures which, combined with deep situational experience across a broad range of industries, enables us to provide strategic contingency planning advice. Our approaches focus on the critical issues in each situation and we support companies, financial stakeholders and potential investors by advising on and developing consensual and non-consensual restructuring plans; developing alternative strategies to an existing restructuring plan, either as a genuine alternative or to expedite a restructuring process; using insolvency to manage onerous liabilities; achieving recoveries in contentious scenarios by using insolvency powers to pursue investigations and asset recoveries.

• Core Business Operations. From driving efficiencies to improving service delivery, from cloud migration to product innovation, our teams will guide you to deploy and optimize the right solutions. And we offer solutions tailored to industry verticals to keep traditional and emerging businesses ahead of the curve.

• Growth Strategy, Analytics and M&A. With our teams’ leading knowledge and experience in mergers, acquisitions, and other corporate restructurings, your business can navigate the entire journey—from pre-planning and due diligence, to the deal and the post-deal transformation—with confidence in the kind of outcomes that stakeholders and shareholders expect.

• Financial Risk. Leading organizations understand that risk is a source of competitive advantage. By managing risk more effectively these organizations unleash their full potential, creating and protecting value for all of their stakeholders. We provide sophisticated capital management and liquidity risk services to help our clients enhancing risk resistance capability.

Legal

• Banking, insurance and finance. We offer legal advice on the formatting of complex financial transactions, assist in the creation and implementation of various types of products and services, and provide support to the relationship of our clients with regulators.

• Contracts and complex negotiations. With an experienced and continually updated team, we are ready to support our clients in the structuring and negotiation of complex contracts. Our difference lies precisely in understanding how our clients operate, what their challenges are, and in find contractual solutions that address these challenges adequately.
