Whatever the potential trigger might be, today’s landscape of uncertainties means businesses have to continually assess and reassess the appropriateness of their existing capital structure and funding options and in many cases the financial restructuring options for their balance sheets to sustain/grow the business.

This need for continual scenario planning and testing of options, combined with often competing priorities of the businesses’ owners, customers/suppliers and financiers presents management with complex obstacles and extended timelines to achieving a successful outcome, even if the case for restructuring is compelling.

Our professionals bring with them the essential expertise and experience and vital strategic insight, deep sector and debt market knowledge and the ability to draw upon the support and breadth of capabilities of Deloitte’s services, especially debt advisory and tax structuring support.

Whether clients require our professionals to act as the lead advisor, to quickly deliver robust financial analysis to support the restructuring plan, to conduct an independent business review or to develop contingency plans we are ideally placed to ensure a successful and timely outcome is delivered.

Solvent wind-downs are a strategic option for businesses looking to close operations while preserving value and ensuring financial stability. Our global network of Deloitte professionals has a market-leading track record in facilitating successful outcomes for local in-country processes as well as complex cross-border restructurings. We specialise in supporting clients through orderly wind-downs, enabling them to manage their assets effectively and recover value for future opportunities

In many situations, our large and highly experienced Global Distressed M&A team are involved too, deploying our proven bespoke methodologies to maximise value recoveries in adverse scenarios, whether that’s delivered in parallel with the insolvency planning or after the event.

We are experts in innovatively deploying these processes as part of a wider restructuring effort to protect and preserve value, regardless of how difficult or complex or time-critical the circumstances.

Corporate Debt & Capital Advisory

Situations which typically trigger our involvement:

  • Refinancing of existing debt facilities prior to maturity
  • Review of existing capital structures, debt service capability and financing terms
  • Covenant amendments
  • Liquidity management
  • Balance sheet optimisation via RWA reduction

We are one of the few independent debt & capital advisory teams with a global reach, offering direct access to a broad network of lenders across industries and instruments. In the last 12 months our >200 specialists have supported clients raising a total amount of CHF 10bn across our European practice.

Our offering covers the full debt cycle – from raising new capital and refinancing to navigating complex covenant structures and managing liquidity under distress. Whether your business is pursuing growth, optimising capital structure, or undergoing financial or operational restructuring, we provide the strategic guidance and execution support needed to enhance financial flexibility and resilience.

Our approach is integrated and action oriented. We support our clients’ business operations by determining and reducing financing needs and improving debt service capabilities. This enables us to execute optimised financings based on external cash flow requirements. In turnaround and stressed situations, we work closely with Corporate Turnaround specialists to source alternative funding, manage lender negotiations, and address covenant breaches with credibility and independence.

In addition, we assist clients in the context of their balance sheet optimisation by reducing RWAs through partnerships with private capital and SRT securitisations.

We deliver results through technical expertise, execution excellence, and an understanding of the broader context in which financing decisions are made.
