Ensuring liquidity / early warning system (including ESG)

In economically challenging times, early identification of a crisis is crucial, along with proactive countermeasures. We can assist you in implementing an effective early warning system that also takes environmental, social and governance factors (ESG) into account. We work with you to develop bespoke solutions aimed at ensuring your liquidity and strengthening the future viability of the business. Through effective liquidity management, we make sure that your company remains solvent even in a crisis situation.

Access to government funding programmes

Struggling businesses are often eligible for state support. We can help you to access the relevant funding programmes and assistance schemes, ranging from filing the application and negotiating with official bodies to complying with the associated conditions. Our expertise is at your service. This support helps you to maintain your liquidity and a liquidity reserve.

Negotiating and crafting alternative financing arrangements

We are your expert partner when your financing comes under pressure. We negotiate with your creditors to arrange bridging and restructuring loans. We also work with you to develop alternative financing models with the aim of ensuring your long-term liquidity. Our solutions are designed to overcome liquidity bottlenecks and ensure ongoing solvency.

Shareholder contributions to the recovery process

Shareholder contributions in the form of loans or collateral are often a key element in a successful rescue. We can assist you around structuring and protecting these contributions so that your efforts to rescue the company meet with long-term success. This includes ensuring liquidity by means of internal financial resources and drawing up a sustainable financing plan.

Short-term measures and long-term planning

In addition to short-term measures to overcome liquidity bottlenecks, we attach great importance to long-term financial and liquidity planning. Our experts work with you to develop risk reduction strategies and improve your liquidity situation by taking specific financial management steps. We help to stabilise your liquidity situation and ensure the company’s ongoing solvency.
