U.K. Turnaround and Restructuring Update

As complex pressures continue to impact the business environment, companies must extract value from digital and strategic transformations urgently.

In this latest report from Criticaleye Partner AlixPartners, business leaders overwhelmingly acknowledge the challenges at present, but also view them as critical opportunities, particularly in sectors like real estate and retail. However, only a portion of organisations are positioned to fully capitalise.

Key takeaways Include:

• 82 percent of respondents expect the cost of capital to remain at current levels or increase further. Just 18 percent expect it to decrease
• 55 percent expect Retail to be the industry most likely to face distress, followed by Commercial Real Estate (51 percent) and Hospitality (46 percent)
• 91 percent anticipate that the availability of capital will remain as is, or increase in relation to the previous year
