Company Restructuring and Turnaround in Brazil

Restructuring advisor in Brazil: turnaround, debt restructuring, interim management (CRO), judicial recovery and controllership for companies in distress.

Company restructuring, or turnaround, is the set of measures that takes a company out of a crisis: understanding why results and cash fell, renegotiating debt, adjusting operations and, when needed, leading a judicial recovery. Founded in 2008, TCP Partners works on company restructuring from diagnosis to execution, with executives inside the company when the situation calls for it.

Signs that a company needs restructuring

  • Margins and cash falling for several months in a row.
  • Debt growing faster than results.
  • Shorter or more expensive bank credit.
  • Late payments to suppliers or taxes.
  • Conflict among shareholders or an unresolved succession.

Frequently asked questions

What is a turnaround?

It is the recovery of a company in crisis: a short-term plan to stabilize cash and a medium-term plan to restore profitability, with changes in management, operations and the debt structure.

When should a company look for a restructuring advisor?

When the drop in results and cash is no longer occasional: debt growing faster than results, shorter credit lines, late payments to suppliers or taxes. The sooner, the more alternatives there are before a judicial recovery.

Is company restructuring the same as judicial recovery?

No. Judicial recovery is one of the tools, used when direct negotiation with creditors is not enough. Restructuring starts earlier and covers operations, management and debt.
