Business Reviews

At RSM Farrell Grant Sparks, we deliver prompt and comprehensive business reviews of companies that are underperforming, in distress or in crisis.

Financial institutions, companies and stakeholders use our Independent Business Reviews (IBRs) to gain clarity on a company’s current position and the options for its future.

Each IBR by our experienced team is an objective and unbiased assessment of the state of the business, identifying key weaknesses and risks and what needs to be done. Our in-depth business reviews facilitate decision making, assurance and a quick turnaround.

Our multi-disciplinary team – including financial advisers, insolvency experts and chartered surveyors – have the skills to cover all dimensions as part of the review process. This results in the production of a realistic and commercial business and restructuring plan.

IBR reports

You get a detailed report which sets out findings, recommendations and courses of action, with a clear and concise analysis of “work-out” options for the stakeholders, recommending optimal capital structures and mapping out the steps to successful implementation.

The report includes:

• A consolidated picture of total debt exposure
• An assessment of the short and medium-term cashflow implications
• An integrated financial model for projections based on key business drivers and assumptions
• An assessment of the strength and capability of management and actions required by management
• Recommendations on best practice corporate governance procedures
