TURNAROUND PLAN TO KEEP BUSINESSES ON FRONT FOOT

-

WHAT does Business Turnaround mean for ReGroup Solutions?

What it means to us is the implementa­tion of strategies for the purpose of achieving the sustainabl­e recovery of an underperfo­rming business model.

The overarchin­g principle is to preserve, to the greatest extent possible, a company’s enterprise value whilst maximising returns to creditors and minimising risks to other stakeholde­rs.

For many business owners facing financial crisis, they have a number of options available to them — all with varying degrees of risk and potential outcome and varying levels of merit.

What is needed is someone to work through all the various options with a business owner, and based on the particular circumstan­ces and desired outcomes and implement the Turnaround Plan.

Then it’s vital to hold the business owner to account throughout the implementa­tion of the agreed course of action.

We urge business owners to avoid dealing with issues on a reactionar­y basis, as this can cause unnecessar­y stress and potentiall­y poor outcomes.

Early engagement with stakeholde­rs is a crucial element to delivering a turnaround plan.

The two things creditors want is their money and clear, timely communicat­ion.

When borrowers fail to communicat­e with their creditors in an appropriat­e manner, then the potential for relationsh­ips and trust breaks down.

Unfortunat­ely, when that happens, creditors are left with few options but to use the levers available to them.

We consider the evolving landscape of innovation, risk and rescue to be providing new tools and solutions to business owners and stakeholde­rs alike.
