CORPORATE MATTERS

Corporate Matters including Corporate Restructuring, which is the process of redesigning one or more aspects of a company. Before restructuring there must be an existing structure which may have many limitations/ restrictions/ vulnerabilities in areas as diverse as finance, legal, business and management which are to be kept in mind before restructuring. In other words, restructuring could be considered as remoulding/ reshaping or fundamentally redoing the existing structure so as to optimise the working of any company.
