Informal restructuring is where a company works with some or all of its creditors to come to a negotiated solution to return the company to financial health. informal restructuring can be a
complicated and technical area. It is very important that the solution complies with commercial practice
and that the agreements and terms don’t breach the Corporations Act. An informal restructuring is
usually the “least drastic” solution available to a company in financial distress. They can be achieved
in a short space of time or can take years to complete. Many restructurings can be dealt with by a
company and its advisors without the need to resort to formal protection under insolvency legislation.

whilst the company deals with its problems. The restructuring process need not follow any set formula.
Some restructurings can be dealt with by a company entirely internally by focusing on performance
improvement. That is, it is not necessary to involve external parties such as the company’s bankers or
trade creditors. In more serious situations a company will need to approach its creditors and agree some
sort of forbearance by the creditors whilst the company deals with its problems. Business stabilization
is a corporate restructuring process designed to help a business through short term and unexpected
financial distress, such as the loss of a big contract. The need for Business Stabilization will arise as a
result of some form of crisis. Business stabilization will involve the implementation of short-term
measures usually designed to enhance cash-flow and generate liquidity. It will usually be combined
with steps to help rebuild the confidence of key stakeholders. Business stabilization will create
sufficient breathing space to implement a longer-term turnaround process.
