	Description:		According to the European Commission, 50% of new businesses survive less than 5 years, causing 200,000 annual bankruptcies and the destruction of 1,700,000 jobs. However, the insolvency rates in the EU are falling in the last few years and the index of confidence of economic stakeholders published by the European Commission has recently reached its highest level for more than a decade. In this new favorable context, investors are more motivated for taking over distressed businesses, especially in some leading sectors. These takeovers prevent many companies from liquidation and thus contribute to save employment. We will provide to purchasers who contemplate to acquire a distressed company a “how to use” guide of the best practices in Belgium, France, Germany, Spain, and the UK. Hear from the Deloitte's Legal and Financial Advisory specialists to get practical ideas on acquiring a distressed business. (Live presentation was aired on 13 Dec 2017)
