Bankruptcy, Insolvency, and Restructuring
Supporting organizations through financial restructuring and special situations
Bankruptcy, insolvency, and restructuring transactions often involve multiple stakeholders, complex legal frameworks, and heightened scrutiny. Independent third parties play an important role in helping transactions progress efficiently, protecting stakeholder interests and supporting governance throughout the restructuring process.
CSC works with law firms, financial advisors, lenders, creditors, investors, and corporate borrowers, providing trust, agency, escrow, special purpose vehicle (SPV), and specialty trustee services across a broad range of restructuring and special situations.
