Corporate Restructuring
Comprehensive restructuring across finance, operations and governance. That is the foundation for a business ready for a transaction, new investment or long-term growth.
When is restructuring needed?
Complex ownership structure
Multiple holding layers, overlapping internal shareholders, unclear to foreign investors. Needs cleanup before M&A or IPO.
Debt burden
Excessive leverage, unbalanced debt/equity ratio, insufficient cash flow to service debt. Needs debt and capital restructuring.
Transaction preparation
Wanting to sell equity or attract investment but financial reports and internal legal structure not yet up to due diligence standards.
3 pillars of restructuring
Financial restructuring
Assessing current capital structure, optimizing debt/equity ratio, negotiating with creditors on debt extension or debt-to-equity conversion, improving working capital and cash flow management.
Legal & ownership restructuring
Simplifying parent-subsidiary structure, clarifying and layering ownership, addressing non-transparent internal shares, ensuring compliance with the Law on Investment and Enterprise.
Operational & governance restructuring
Establishing corporate governance models to international standards, reorganizing the board of directors and management structure, building internal control and management reporting systems.

About corporate restructuring
There is no fixed timeline. It depends entirely on the company's current state and the scope of the project. Simple legal clean-up typically completes in about 2–4 months, while comprehensive restructuring (financial, operational and governance) usually needs 6–18 months, adjusted flexibly as the work progresses.
When properly planned, operational impact is minimal. Core Ventures designs phased restructuring roadmaps, prioritizing business continuity and only executing high-risk changes during appropriate timeframes.
