Debt Restructuring

 

Our services focus on the clients’ capital structure and the optimal financial leverage. Alternative sources of financing are evaluated and debt restructuring plans are proposed based on the clients’ special needs. Additionally, professional support is provided in negotiations with financial institutions.

 

High levels of debt mostly threaten companies’ viability. When the level of debt becomes too high compared to turnover or fixed assets, effective debt management can reverse the company’s negative position and enable it return to sustainable financial operation.

 

The WRA team has built significant experience in debt restructuring. This service is usually combined with the wider operational and organizational re-engineering of the whole company. In this framework, a general redesign and redefinition of the company’s operational model is required, aiming at its recovery and sustainability through the implementation of a defined plan and the achievement a series of short, intermediate and long-term milestones.

WRA’s deep expertise in financial modeling and forecasting gives you the assurance that the information underlying our business valuation estimates are as accurate and reliable as possible.

 

Our experience in business valuation gives you comfort that appropriate methods are used to reach accurate and reliable estimates of the market value of your business.

Our business valuation estimates represent what business owners could reasonably expect the market prices of their businesses to be in a transaction.

 

We tailor the scope of our business valuations to our client’s specific needs and the purpose of the engagement.
