Global Restructuring Group

Markets face a wide range of persistent macroeconomic challenges: high inflation, rising interest rates, slower growth and supply chain disruption. At the same time, businesses have to tackle structural change, higher debt and tightening liquidity. Allen & Overy's Global Restructuring Group is uniquely positioned to help our clients as stressed and distressed activity increases. Our expertise allows us to assist clients wherever they may encounter distress, whether as debtor, sponsor, par lender, distressed investor, liquidity provider, insolvency officeholder or as another key stakeholder. We are not restricted to one part of the restructuring and insolvency market. Our lawyer bench allows us to lead the market in corporate, financial institution and sovereign distress, and we are central to the creation and negotiation of innovative solutions for our clients.

The most complex situations demand expertise across markets where our clients operate, both cross-border and cross-sector. We have lawyers working on restructuring and insolvency matters in the US, the UK, across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. We also have the depth of in-house expertise needed to execute restructuring transactions, including in capital markets, leverage finance, high yield, real estate finance, litigation, projects, energy and infrastructure, structured finance, derivatives, financial regulation, tax, corporate, employment and pensions. Our sector coverage and geographical reach means that we can drive complex restructurings from start to finish.
