Business recovery

Navigating the complex world of insolvency with experienced guidance

As the stakeholder landscape evolves in a crisis, the key is for management to build trust and confidence with its relevant stakeholders by ensuring that their interests are managed appropriately. It is also imperative for the affairs of the business to be stabilised before a strategy can be implemented to maximise recovery. 

If parts of the business are approaching a crisis, you need to ask how you are managing the situation to stay in control. What will happen with the business or subsidiaries in question - should they be sold, closed, restructured or be part of an insolvency proceeding? 

There are various options available to management to carve out ailing parts of the business. The costs and risks of all options should be considered carefully before making an informed decision on the best solution and ensuring that it is implemented properly.

 

How we can help you:

Stabilisation stewardship to preserve value

Take control, regularise the affairs of the company and ensure continuous engagement with relevant stakeholders.

Maximise recovery options

Develop strategies/ options available to maintain business continuity based on the tools available under the Companies Act 2016 (i.e. Corporate Rescue Mechanisms, Receiverships and Liquidations).

Execute recovery

Execute your recovery strategy, including formulating and implementing an asset recovery strategy to trace and recover assets that could have been subject to misappropriation.

Our services

Liquidation (voluntary or court)

In carrying out responsibilities as a court appointed liquidator, we help distressed companies wind down the business and sell off the company's assets for eventual distribution to creditors. We also help companies wind down their affairs by way of voluntary liquidation.

Receivership

We assume control over charged assets and operations, and ensure preservation of asset value. We implement effective asset management strategies and explore opportunities for asset monetisation.

Distressed M&A

We facilitate highly targeted transactions in distressed situations, leveraging expertise in mergers and acquisitions to maximise value and opportunities for businesses in distress.

Going concern assessment /working capital sufficiency /solvency test

We evaluate insolvency risk, working capital sufficiency, and going concern status for companies, providing actionable insights for financial stability and long term sustainability.

Financial monitoring accountant

We offer skilled financial monitoring and reporting services to ensure compliance, transparency and accountability in the insolvency/restructuring process.

Litigation support

We provide assistance in legal proceedings related to insolvency and restructuring, offering specialised guidance and analysis for effective resolution.

Asset tracing and recovery

We help track down assets that have been lost or hidden, often as part of an insolvency or fraud investigation. This can involve working with legal and investigative professionals to locate and recover assets that may have been misappropriated.

Estate administration

We offer services in managing the assets and debts of a deceased person, often as part of probate proceedings. This can involve working with legal and financial professionals to ensure that the deceased person's assets are distributed according to their wishes and that outstanding debts are paid off.
