Crises often result in financial difficulties and liquidity bottlenecks. Insufficient or no transparency of data in relation to critical success factors makes it even more difficult to identify and analyse the sources of problems.

Another critical issue is the risk of not complying with covenants or having already breached them. This can put a strain on relationships with creditors and investors. The declining trust of stakeholders can further restrict the company's room for manoeuvre.

Get back on the road to success quickly

Particular attention should also be paid to the loss of top performers, as important and essential employees often leave the company in times of crisis, which can exacerbate the situation.

In addition to the challenges listed above, it is crucial to recognise potential liability risks at an early stage and address them appropriately.

In order to overcome these critical aspects and stabilise the company, rapid and sometimes far-reaching measures are required. Carefully analysing the financial situation and identifying the causes of the crisis are essential.
