Introduction
Businesses in financial distress must decide between bankruptcy and restructuring. The best choice depends on debt obligations, cash flow, and creditor negotiations.
What is Business Restructuring?
Restructuring allows businesses to negotiate debts and optimize finances without filing for bankruptcy.
What is Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy (typically Chapter 11) provides court protection while businesses restructure operations.
