Understand the sale process and significant benefits and opportunities when purchasing distressed assets.

Current and expected future economic conditions portend an increase in the sale of distressed assets out of bankruptcy and other insolvency situations due to the increase in financially distressed and overleveraged companies.

Growing valuations for both public and private companies, the continued limited access to growth capital for potential sellers and the promise of deregulation from the new Trump administration that may significantly increase liquidity to funding sources, present a perfect combination of increasing buy-side demand and seller-side supply conditions for a frothy future market for distressed sales and acquisitions.
