As companies assess the impact of the pandemic on their businesses, they are looking for help working with debtors and investors to find ways to stay afloat through the crisis. In Latin America, things aren’t different, but legal and macroeconomic issues continue to challenge executives in how to properly navigate very complex challenges.
