Corporate restructuring is the process of reshaping a company’s financial, legal or operating set-up to restore performance, unlock value or prepare for a transaction. It can include divesting non-core units, simplifying group structures, renegotiating debt, redesigning the operating model or implementing cost-reduction programmes. Consultants start by diagnosing where value is being eroded — margins, overheads, working capital, duplicated roles, unprofitable geographies — and then design a sequence of actions that the business can realistically deliver. Lenders and investors usually expect clear cash-flow impact, governance and reporting around the plan. In complex or multi-jurisdiction groups, restructuring also has tax, regulatory and people implications that must be managed carefully. The overall objective is to create a leaner, financeable organisation that can focus management attention on growth areas.
