Comeptence Expert Appraisal Activities

Due to our high reputation in the market and transparent collaboration between companies and financing institutions, we are regularly recommended by banks and investors to prepare so-called “restructuring reports according to IDW S6.” ARES Advisors strictly adheres to the principles of the IDW (Institute of Public Auditors in Germany) and the latest jurisprudence, acting as independent advisors.

OPENING DOORS INSTEAD OF CLOSING THEM

The demand for a restructuring report by stakeholders may initially seem unpleasant, but it offers many advantages for a company:

An important aspect is also the reduction of liability risks for management and an accurate and legally sound presentation of facts in insolvency proceedings, which often require a forensic investigation.

Frequently Asked Questions

When a company is in a crisis situation, the financing banks – as well as other creditors and state institutions – require the report of an independent expert. This report outlines the historical development, the causes of the crisis, and the necessary measures for a “positive continuation prognosis.” A professional restructuring report thus provides an important foundation for effective restructuring.

A “positive continuation prognosis” is given when the necessary financing of the company is secured with a high probability for at least 18 to 24 months.
The time required to prepare the report largely depends on the quality of the available data, such as financial accounting, and the complexity of the company or corporate group. Based on our experience, the timeframe generally ranges between three and six weeks.
To maintain financing or support the restructuring with additional funds, ongoing implementation support by an experienced restructuring consultancy is usually a prerequisite. ARES Advisors also supports you in this and, if necessary, takes on short-term responsibility as CRO / restructuring management.
Managing a corporate crisis requires quick action and intensive communication with a variety of stakeholders, including banks, lawyers, and auditors – all in addition to regular business operations. Companies often simply lack the capacity to tackle these challenges on their own. A CRO (Chief Restructuring Officer) can effectively support these companies with their specialized knowledge and experience in crisis management by initiating and coordinating the necessary measures for stabilization and restructuring.
