We talk honestly about what it really means when a business is in distress, how to know if you’re heading in that direction, and what options are available before it’s too late. Basson shares his journey into this work, the most common reasons businesses land in trouble, and what the business rescue process actually looks like - from early warning signs to dealing with creditors. We also dive into what makes a rescue successful, why cash flow is king, and the legal responsibilities directors need to understand.
