CRO Support
The powerful support of the CRO in corporate restructuring
Crisis situations are one of the most difficult phases for companies. Financial bottlenecks, dwindling stakeholder confidence and pressure from all sides – the list of challenges is long. In the midst of this chaos, the Chief Restructuring Officer (CRO) faces a particularly demanding task. As a leader, you not only have to manage the day-to-day business, but also develop and implement a clear vision for the restructuring. The pressure to make the right and often time-critical decisions to put the company on the road to recovery is immense.
As CRO, you are a key factor in crisis management. Your experience and expertise are indispensable in overcoming the challenges in this delicate phase. As a CRO, you must not only have a comprehensive understanding of financial, operational and legal aspects, but also act as a mediator between different interest groups.
A powerful team and a supportive interface to the company’s employees and other external stakeholders are often indispensable for a successful restructuring.

We have extensive experience of the financial structures of companies in crisis situations and can develop financial models to support restructuring and monitor risks on an ongoing basis (e.g. in the form of corporate/liquidity planning, liquidity status in accordance with IDW requirements).
We support employees directly, from structuring problems and finding solutions to the sustainable implementation of individual measures and restructuring programs.
Depending on the initial situation and requirements, we can access a wide range of tools, from MS Excel-based tools and web-based tools for real-time tracking of the effects of measures up to the implementation of BI solutions and liquidity/corporate planning tools.
