Liability Management Exercises (LMEs) have emerged as a prevalent corporate restructuring tool amidst rising interest rates and economic uncertainty. LMEs now constitute 65% of default activity, providing relief to companies facing strained liquidity and looming debt maturities. This evolution prompts an intriguing question: are LMEs merely a temporary fix or a genuine pathway to the recovery of an ailing business? The answer depends on whether these exercises are combined with operational restructurings, where underlying weaknesses in the business are addressed and remedied. Ankura's turnaround and restructuring experts provide the insights needed to assess and optimize the impact of LMEs, ensuring they serve as bridges to sustainable recovery rather than mere bandages. Discover more about how LMEs can be strategically leveraged for long-term success.
