We supply a wide range of services, including Guernsey and Jersey liquidations, to under-performing businesses and their stakeholders. We focus on identifying and resolving issues affecting profitability, protecting enterprise value and, where necessary, recovering value for stakeholders.

Our assignments vary from financially robust companies seeking to acquire under-performing competitors, to distressed businesses requiring an urgent solution.

Our Recovery & Reorganisation

Corporate Insolvency

Our corporate investigation, Guernsey liquidation and recovery teams focus on identifying and resolving issues affecting profitability, protecting enterprise value and facilitating a full recovery where possible.

Corporate Simplification

Redundant corporate entities can over complicate group structures and waste thousands of pounds in unnecessary costs each year. 46% of the c.15,500 companies controlled by the FTSE100 are dormant and it is estimated that the average cost of administering dormant companies is between £3,500 and £5,000 per company, per year. 

Debt Advisory

Our Debt Advisory team provides commercial and financial debt advice to corporate entities and public sector bodies in a range of sectors. Our engagements include advice on stand-alone transactions and solutions or as part of an integrated business plan, in both the project and corporate arenas. 

Exit Strategy Services

We offer a tailored methodology designed to enable a company to be reviewed in a group context to assess ways to maximise its value.

Financial Restructuring

For companies challenged by under-performance we work with management teams, shareholders, lenders and other stakeholders to implement financial restructuring solutions creating a stable platform for business turnaround.

Strategic performance reviews

Strategic performance reviews analyse the key drivers of performance improvement. Our specialists utilise a framework to evaluate financial and operational options and to identify solutions for businesses and their stakeholders.
