THE TURNAROUND MASTER™ is the high-impact restructuring advisory and interim management program of HELVIA to save troubled businesses and returns them to solvency and to profit. Companies in crisis pay up in a

whirldwind of destruction of value, growing financial demands, insufficient cash flow and suffer the threats of an interruption of business or revocation over

acts by creditors. If not quickly handled, such situations degenerate into metastasis, quickly leading to the business disruption and in worst cases

to company bankruptcy.

THE TURNAROUND MASTER™ of HELVIA offers both high-level advisoryand critical interim leadership to the prevention of pathological states of defaults, illiquidity or serious economic crisis, claiming the directors of the tricky task of rehabilitation and preservation of business continuity.

elbow-to-elbow with management to construct and execute a pragmatic solution that will restore stability and identify the best path forward.
