Fluctuating consumer tastes and preferences, cut throat competition, rapid advances in technology, and obstinate workforces, together combine to create a highly complex operating environment for businesses. At the same time, highly demanding shareholders as well as the financial markets exert tremendous pressure on corporates to continuously improve their profitability and market share. Although some companies excel, many companies slowly wither away under such perpetual onslaught. Would managers like to stand on the sidelines and watch the profitability of their companies decline? The acid test for managers is their ability to put into place a restructuring mechanism that can quickly arrest the decline. Understanding and adopting best practices in corporate restructuring is the key to achieving competitive advantage and creating shareholder value. Chronicled in this book are stories, which highlight various factors that can adversely affect the performance of even a strongly performing company. The case studies also provide valuable insights into the strategies (both successful and failed) adopted by managers and the challenges faced by them during implementation.

The case studies in this book Case Studies on Corporate Restructuring Vol. I cover diverse industries and provide insights into the strategies of dealing with troubled corporates in a real-life environment. The book contains some of the finest case studies on restructuring efforts carried out by some of the most famous corporates across the globe.
