Corporate restructuring

Открыть страницу: на русском языке

Recently Russian companies and holdings from large corporations to mid-sized business have been restructuring to ensure that their businesses are in synch with market trends and business objectives. The main drivers for restructuring are the need to enhance business value, raise the company's attractiveness to strategic investors and on capital markets, and increase efficiency and transparency.

If this is your situation

• You are seeking to improve business efficiency in the current economic environment
• You are trying to maintain stable liquidity and solvency before creditors
• You believe that your organisational structure and management system no longer comply with your business strategy and objectives
• You are interested in adding value to your business and increasing the attractiveness of your company to creditors, strategic investors and capital markets
• You are interested in simplifying your business structure to increase efficiency and transparency
• Your ownership and operational structures are not tax efficient and don’t address legal risks
• You have non-core business units that you want to divest or sell-off to curb cash outflow and free up capital and resources

How we can help you

Optimisation of asset portfolios

We review companies’ asset portfolios and organisational structures to improve their overall business value and compliance with their business development strategy. We use optimal value chains developed by PricewaterhouseCoopers for specific industries around the world.

We also recommend action plans to remove non-core assets. Our conclusions are based on a comparative assessment of the impact of restructuring as well as available time and resources.

Optimisation of asset ownership structures

Our tax and legal consultants develop target ownership structures to establish personal holding mechanisms and ensure the protection of shared property. They also create centres for market capitalisation, increase the asset liquidity and optimise taxation and intraholding financing. Our recommendations are closely aligned with the optimisation of the asset management system.

Optimisation of management systems

Our team can help a company’s executives identify gaps in the structure of their management systems and eliminate them according to the following criteria:

• Meeting strategic objectives, including going public and improving corporate governance
• Maintaining flexibility in a changing business environment
• Facilitating a prompt decision-making process and the optimisation of management costs

We also make recommendations on the structure and function of the corporate centre, the organisation of business units and the distribution of authority between different management levels. We help establish management practices in accordance Russian and international standards and take into account the specific features of a client company.

Assessing the impact of restructuring on business value

An important criterion for effectively evaluating the restructuring process is enhancing business value. We substantiate our recommendations and assess their potential impact on business value by creating long-term financial and strategic models and analysing the value of comparable companies.
