24 July 2025 | Business Restructuring & Insolvency

What are the early signs of business distress? Why do some companies collapse while others recover? In this insightful interview, Gareth Cremen breaks down:

·      The warning signs business owners often ignore
·      The three paths available: liquidation, business rescue, or informal workouts
·      Why South Africa leads Africa in business rescue legislation and how others like Zimbabwe and Ghana are following suit
·      The growing use of informal restructuring as a practical, stigma-free tool for recovery
