Back to Financial Risk

In financial distress, advisers do more than provide technical input; they shape strategy, lend credibility with creditors and, by their early involvement, evidence that directors acted responsibly.

The risk many boards run is engaging too late, when advisers can only manage decline rather than design a recovery.

This report explains the role advisers play when you are in financial distress in your chosen jurisdiction and industry: the framework for matching adviser type to need, and the scenarios that call for each.

It covers the warning indicators that it is time to bring help in, and hedged ranges for the cost of early versus late engagement.

It also sets out the controls that get the most from advisers, and clear guidance on sequencing counsel, restructuring specialists, auditors and financial-risk experts.
