ESG Transformations In The Restructuring Business: Who Cares?

ESG-related (environmental, social and governance) issues are no longer a topic to be put on the shelves for later – they now represent a key focus of activity for restructurers in order to provide comprehensive support for the rapid, results-oriented implementation of necessary adjustments.

Only companies that accept the challenge of transforming themselves to meet high ESG standards and, if necessary, also adapt their business models, will be able to survive in the long term. Financiers of all kinds (banks, private equity, debt funds) are already known to shy away from making or maintaining commitments in companies whose business model or corporate governance are negative in terms of ESG standards. And there is no need to mention here that in the "war for talent" a conscious approach to and active engagement with ESG issues has become a success factor.
