Episode description

The economic turmoil caused by the corona virus pandemic is likely to unleash a wave of deals as companies look to offload business units to help generate cash, strengthen the balance sheet and become more resilient to what may be a more turbulent future. It’s during a crisis, like we have now, where organisations need to refocus their business and think about where they are going to invest.  

Divestments can be a highly profitable way of selling assets that, for whatever reason, are no longer core, and use the capital raised where it’s most needed. The key to success comes down to a focus on value, an organisational ability to execute, clear governance and finally an approach that always has people at the centre.
