ROOTS Advisory initially supported the shareholders of a German credit institution in evaluating strategic options and subsequently guided them through a complex recovery and resolution process. The focus was on representing the shareholders in their interactions with supervisory authorities, developing and executing a strategic communication plan, and ensuring the structured,optimised realisation of the existing loan portfolio. Throughout the process, ROOTS Advisory combined regulatory expertise with a transaction-oriented approach to effectively safeguard the shareholders’ interests with regard to the supervisory authorities and the appointed special administrators.
