Restructuring and Insolvency Law

Restructuring and insolvency law refers to the legal processes that help businesses in financial trouble reorganize their debts or, if necessary, wind down operations in an orderly manner. In the context of mergers and acquisitions (M&A), these laws are crucial as they provide a framework for potential buyers to assess the financial health of a target company, evaluate risks, and negotiate terms. They also allow distressed companies to restructure in a way that might make them more attractive for acquisition, ensuring that stakeholders, including creditors and employees, are treated fairly during the process.
