| Hawkpoint
has a wealth of experience in advising companies (both
listed and private) and their stakeholders in a wide
variety of stressed debt and restructuring situations.
Our senior partners have advised on and created innovative
solutions for complex European restructuring transactions
including Schefenacker AG and EM.TV AG in Germany, ISTC
in Ireland and Amey PLC and Jarvis plc in the UK. We
advised the Government of Iceland on both the capitalisation
of three domestic banks, formed from the collapse of
Landsbanki, Kaupthing and Glitnir, and the negotiation
of compensation due to the estates of the collapsed
banks for the extraction of the net assets involved.
In addition to specialist personnel, senior members
of the firm have substantial experience of providing
strategic advice to companies in difficult situations.
One of the key challenges in such transactions is gaining
a quick and clear understanding of the interests and
perspectives of each of the parties involved. Hawkpoint's
experience of acting for different types of stakeholders
within the capital structure provides it with the insight
to swiftly assess the likely perspective of each party
to a given situation.
Every situation requires a tailored approach. Our ability
to produce a bespoke solution for our clients in each
case is supported by our capacity to draw on a number
of disciplines across the firm. Input from our debt
advisory practice both provides the very latest intelligence
from the banking market and delivers the execution of
debt related solutions as required. Our first-class
understanding of the private equity market assists us
in securing financial buyers for companies and their
subsidiaries. Our senior partners collectively have
extensive experience of advising listed companies in
relation to public company issues whilst our general
M&A advisory capability is practised in the careful
execution of disposals as part of a restructuring engagement. |
