AlixPartners 18th Annual Turnaround and Transformation Survey | Certain moves in an uncertain world

As companies try to navigate choppy and unpredictable economic waters...

The experts who work with troubled companies have told us that financing — fifth on the list of challenges for these companies last year — has risen to the top, as inflationary spikes, monetary tightening, and higher interest rates drive a crunch on capital that severely threatens recovery and growth efforts. Bankruptcies in the U.S. are at their highest level since the global financial crisis and events witnessed already this year in financial services have done little to steady swaying ships.
