Restructuring and Insolvency

The GLAS restructuring and insolvency team provides expert advice and refinancing solutions for distressed debt and manage even the most complex transactions.

Insolvency law governs businesses in financial difficulty that are unable to repay debts. This can lead to legal action to force the liquidation of assets to pay off banks and creditors.

Restructuring is a way to improve a company’s financial stability before insolvency proceedings are issued, it uses out-of-court arrangements with creditors to make debt repayments and by modifying its operations or structure.
