Restructuring & Demerger
Companies often carry out restructuring and demergers in order to modernize and adapt their organization, structure, operations and balance sheet with a view to improving performance, efficiency and long-term potential. Companies are in particular able to overcome problems by making operational changes, by reducing debt through cash-conserving restructuring measures, or by restructuring or repositioning themselves on the market. Demergers enable the separation of business units which are not profitable and modernize them by creating specialized customer-focused entities which enhance shareholder value as well as flexibility for the variety of development prospects.
