- debt restructuring

SOS.BIZ, in partnership with its Practitioners' Business Network, offer top notch competencies and specific professional experience to secure a definitive solution pattern for financially distressed firms. We, in particular, apply a full Feasibility Analysis and Asseveration of Debt Restructuring Plans as per recently Italian renewed restructuring procedures on Private Transactions and Bankruptcy Provision, i.e. "Law n.134/2012".

Specific applications on following transactions: ex. art.67 (out of the Court), ex. art.182 bis and art.161 (in the Court).

SOS.BIZ assess your industrial plan and financial restructuring to secure full adherence with your creditor expectations as well as to make sure your future performance is a feasible proposition.

SOS.BIZ offer you the capability to translate into operational terms all performance KPI's (including the financial covenants) of your industrial plan through a very articulated, yet simple to absorb, deployment and monitoring process architecture.
