In a threatening risk of financial distress or a strategic crisis, shareholders and creditors (next to possible legal steps) expect to see effective action to eliminate deeper crisis infection and secure future stability.
Specific financial actions and/or measures under corporate law are inevitable in case of existing insolvency or pre-insolvency.
In a project crisis, not much time is given to stop wasting resources and/or budget. But first of all trust and understanding has to be established within the project organization and external partners.
Triage & Rate is an important step to get the top management united in their ambition to generate instantly visible results.
The method is used in executive workshops to evaluate fact-based current issues and define necessary turnaround actions.
In a pre-insolvency or insolvency situation next to operational restructuring (cost cutting), especially financial, or corporate law measures need to be considered.
Based on the above-mentioned plannings this may include negotiations of possible creditors' waivers, the use of insolvency employment benefits, legal contract terminations under Insolvency law, even debt-equity-swaps, distressed M&A or capital write-downs.
