The term “turnaround” has come to encompass a range of measures aimed at restoring the fortunes of a company with (or preferably without) the use of a formal insolvency procedure. These measures include strengthening (or replacing) the existing management team, introduction of fresh capital, restructuring finances (e.g. replacing short term loans with longer term ones), reduction of cost base and (if a formal insolvency procedure is required) the use of a Company Voluntary Arrangement to enable the company to deal with its creditors in an orderly manner.
In larger businesses the “turnaround” process can be costly especially where additional management resource has to be bought in and it pays to have independent advice regarding the overall plan and it likely chances of success before any costs are incurred.
In smaller (often owner-managed) businesses the process of changing management can be much more difficult and it is impossible in many instances. The cost of remedial measures can also be prohibitive.
Smaller businesses are often reluctant to consult insolvency practitioners in relation to turning around their businesses fortunes as there is an incorrect pre-conception that such a consultation will only result in administration or liquidation. It is little known that less than one third of such consultations that we are engaged in result in instructions to implement a formal insolvency procedure and the majority of the remainder carry on trading with the benefit of having received an independent and frank review of affairs, suggestions for the future and/or reassurance that they are on the right track.
In all circumstances the main thing is to take advice early. Do not leave it until creditor pressure has become so great that the scope for manoeuvring is severely restricted.

An IVA allows you to renegotiate the terms of your arrangements with your creditors. If you have unsecured debts with a number of creditors that you are unable to pay this is an alternative to formal bankruptcy. An IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) allows you to manage your debts with a solution that will give your creditors money over a period of time, which is normally 60 months.
Does your business have mounting debts that it is struggling to repay? Rather than give up on a great idea, lose a loyal workforce and end up liquidating your company, why not speak to us about a CVA (Company Voluntary Arrangement)?
Company Administration is widely misunderstood and, while some see it as a last resort, in reality the process is designed to be centred around strengthening your business and getting it back on track.
