Dallas Chapter: “Bankruptcy: How to Avoid It, Benefit from It, and How to Fund It” 8/21/20 | WEBINAR

 

Bankruptcy: How to Avoid It, Benefit from It, and How to Fund It

Financial and operational stress and distress come in different forms. For some financial officers and personnel, breaching a financial covenant in a loan document, or facing a liquidity crunch may be a new experience.  What do you do when the company can’t make payroll or a scheduled debt payment, must negotiate a forbearance agreement, deal with a workout officer, or incurs significant and unsustainable losses? The presentation will provide ideas for financial officers and personnel to consider when faced with financial and/or operational distress.
