Contingency planning and insolvency services

Most restructurings need a contingency plan. When businesses face increasing risks and challenges to continued trading, we can help create the time, space and environment to develop and deliver the right solutions using extensive experience of insolvency options.

What EY contingency planning and insolvency team can do for you

We work with management and financial stakeholders to use the pace, protection, powers and flexibility available under applicable insolvency law to address the issues threatening a business’ survival.

We use contingency planning and insolvency services to create restructuring legacies by:

  • Increasing the chance of a consensual restructuring through a credible “Plan B”
