In today's rapidly changing environment, every company faces challenges and adversities. A step in the wrong direction and a delay in addressing immediate liquidity crisis can have significant effects on corporate performance and company value.
Whether you are dealing with a liquidity crisis or transforming your business to respond to long-term market disruptions, you need an advisor that understands how to get you where you want to be, navigate liquidity and who understands the different financial opportunities for your organisation in your particular market. Most importantly, you need an advisor that strives to go beyond the ‘deal’ or ‘report’ to give your decision-makers the ideas, strategies and execution capabilities that can enable you to turn your adversity into opportunity.
By choosing KPMG to guide you through your crisis or transformation, you are choosing to accelerate your time to resolution, and tap into deep industry, sectoral experience and an established global network of over 1,200 professionals.
Don’t wait for disruption to become a crisis. Let’s get you back to driving growth.
When a company faces operational or financial challenges, speed is of essence. We provide a seamless approach to stabilising underperforming companies by identifying opportunities for strategic, operational, organisational and financial change, and executing on them to achieve real results. We help establish solid ground for a turnaround by assessing your liquidity position and creating a stakeholder management plan.
We will guide you through each phase of the turnaround process — from establishing an early plan of action that clearly explains what needs to happen when, to developing a turnaround plan that balances the different priorities of all stakeholders, all the way through to execution and value realisation.
As we drive a rapid turnaround to meet stakeholder objectives, we focus on the key questions that will help you create a leaner, more flexible and far more competitive company.
