Economic & financial analysis · SWOT

Diagnosis before treatment — decisions grounded in data, not assumptions.

Economic and financial analysis is the mandatory first step before any strategic decision about a company in difficulty. It involves assessing liquidity, solvency, profitability and operational-efficiency indicators, correlated with a legal analysis of the liabilities.

A SWOT analysis applied in the insolvency context identifies: the strengths that can be leveraged in a reorganization (valuable assets, key contracts, specialized staff), the weaknesses that generated the crisis, the recovery opportunities (markets, products, partners) and the threats (aggressive creditors, pending litigation, loss of licenses).

The result: a clear report that grounds the decision on the most suitable procedure — restructuring agreement, preventive concordat, reorganization or, if there is no alternative, liquidation. A correct analysis can make the difference between a successful procedure and years lost in litigation.

Why this procedure
  • A complete, true picture of the financial situation
  • Identifying the optimal procedure before starting it
  • Solid documentation for negotiating with creditors
  • A foundation for the reorganization plan or concordat
Frequently asked questions
What is the economic and financial analysis for?
The analysis objectively establishes whether the company is viable and which procedure fits: preventive restructuring, reorganization or liquidation. It measures liquidity, solvency, profitability and cash flow, and grounds the decision — including before creditors and the court.
What documents are needed for the analysis?
The financial statements for the past 3 years, recent trial balances, the list of creditors and debtors with amounts and due dates, significant ongoing contracts and the litigation status. The more complete the documentation, the more precise the diagnosis.
How long does an economic and financial analysis take?
Usually between 1 and 3 weeks from receiving the complete documentation, depending on the size and complexity of the company. The result is a written report with the financial diagnosis and the strategy recommendation.
