Mastering Corporate Recovery: Financial Restructuring in Practice

Mastering Corporate Recovery: Financial Restructuring in Practice by Varadarajan Pattammal is a comprehensive, practitioner-focused guide designed for corporate leaders, finance professionals, business consultants, and senior managers navigating the challenges of corporate insolvency and financial distress. Blending conceptual depth with hands-on application, this book serves as both a training manual and strategic playbook to understand and implement successful financial restructuring across Indian and global corporate landscapes.Structured as a workbook, the text takes readers through a step-by-step process-from early warning signals of financial distress to the formulation, implementation, and monitoring of restructuring strategies. Through detailed case studies from companies such as Jet Airways, Essar Steel, General Motors, and Evergrande, the book provides real-time context and tested solutions for managing both crisis and opportunity. Emphasizing the twin pillars of debt restructuring and equity restructuring, it outlines how capital structures can be realigned to restore solvency, improve cash flows, and create sustainable business models.The book addresses legal and regulatory frameworks with a focus on the Indian Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), and compares it to international frameworks like the U.S. Chapter 11 and the UK's Administration processes. It offers detailed insights into negotiation strategies with stakeholders, operational turnaround techniques, asset optimization, divestiture planning, and the importance of post-restructuring governance and performance tracking.Interactive features such as role plays, boardroom simulations, financial modeling assignments, and stakeholder mapping exercises make the book especially suited for corporate training programs and executive education. The use of performance metrics, key financial ratios, and monitoring tools enhances the practical utility of the content.What makes Mastering Corporate Recovery: Financial Restructuring in Practice distinctive is its holistic approach-it doesn't merely teach restructuring as a set of financial adjustments, but presents it as a transformation process requiring legal insight, strategic foresight, operational efficiency, and strong leadership. The author's academic grounding and corporate experience are reflected in the clarity, relevance, and accessibility of the text.Whether you're an Indian executive dealing with stressed assets, a global manager facing financial volatility, or a consultant advising clients on turnarounds, this book equips you with the frameworks, tools, and perspectives needed to lead change confidently and competently.Key Features: Real-world Indian and global case studies (e.g., Jet Airways, DHFL, GM, LATAM Airlines)Interactive assignments and simulations for corporate trainingLegal frameworks and comparative international perspectives (IBC, Chapter 11, UK law)Comprehensive coverage of debt and equity restructuringModules on cost reduction, asset optimization, and post-restructuring monitoringApplicable to leaders in banking, consulting, manufacturing, and service sectors
