Cross-border Restructuring and Insolvency

Corporate groups are not constrained by jurisdictional boundaries, and neither are we. Our geographical reach across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas allows us to support our clients everywhere.

Insolvency processes often begin in a company's home jurisdiction but need to be recognized elsewhere. Our teams are experienced in obtaining recognition and in working with insolvency practitioners around the world.

Sometimes, the local insolvency process won't achieve the best outcome for the client. We guide your restructuring and insolvency planning so that you can take advantage of the process best suited to your needs.
