About this title

Synopsis

A collection of case studies illustrates real–world techniques, implementation, and strategies on corporate restructuring
Over the period 1981–1998, public companies with combined assets of over half a trillion dollars filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Over the same period, over 400 public companies underwent corporate spin–offs, divesting businesses valued at more than $250 billion. Each of these companies, and all of these dollars, were in some way or another involved in corporate restructuring. Gilson′s cases studies have been used extensively in executive programs and are perfect tools to refer to when faced with real–world corporate restructuring issues.
Stuart C. Gilson (Boston, MA) is an Associate Professor at Harvard University and a widely acknowledged expert on corporate restructuring. He has studied and published on the intricacies of both domestic and international corporate restructuring.
