Corporate Restructuring

Independent advisory for shareholders and boards in critical restructuring and transformation scenarios.

When the Structure No Longer Supports the Strategy.

Board-level Restructuring.
Independent Advisory.

GestInvest advises shareholders, boards and executive teams on complex corporate restructuring situations, where value preservation, governance and disciplined execution are critical.

We intervene in moments where the existing corporate, financial or operational structure no longer supports the strategic objectives of the business — whether due to growth constraints, shareholder misalignment, financial stress or external shocks.

Our role is to restore structural coherence, protect stakeholder interests and create a sustainable platform for future decision-making.

Situations That Trigger a Restructuring

Revenue decline or market contraction requiring cost and operations reconfiguration
Debt burden that no longer matches cash generation or asset base
Shareholder conflict or governance breakdown creating strategic paralysis
Management team transition requiring governance reset and oversight reinforcement
Post-acquisition integration failure requiring corrective action
Regulatory or compliance event requiring structural response

Who We Work With

Financial underperformance or capital structure imbalance

Shareholder or governance misalignment requiring resolution

Our Principles in Restructuring

We work transparently with all key stakeholders — creditors, shareholders and management
We prioritise preservation of business value over any single stakeholder interest
We are direct — restructuring requires uncomfortable decisions and we do not avoid them
