Financial Restructuring

Definition

Financial restructuring involves modifying the terms of a company’s debt obligations or capital structure to improve its financial health. This process typically occurs when a company faces financial distress or seeks to optimize its balance sheet, often involving renegotiating loan agreements, issuing new equity, or converting debt to equity. The objective is to reduce the burden of liabilities, improve liquidity, and establish a sustainable path to profitability. Successful restructuring can prevent bankruptcy and allow the entity to continue operations.
