GDP buys and operates distressed situations — and nearly every one of them involves a crisis to be managed. This division is that capability: built for our own portfolio, offered to businesses that need it.

Crisis & change management

Group portfolio & outside businesses
ENGAGEMENT
Diagnosis at a fixed fee
MANDATE
Scope, duration, outcome agreed
The division handles crisis and change management — for companies in the group's own portfolio, and for outside businesses that engage us directly. The work follows the discipline: stabilise the cash position, establish an accurate picture of the business, deal with the creditors and counterparties that matter, then plan and execute the changes that restore viability. Engagements are handled discreetly.
Control of cash comes first: stopping avoidable outflows, securing what the business needs to keep operating, and managing immediate pressure from creditors and counterparties.
An accurate picture of the business — the cash position, the obligations, the realistic options — prepared quickly and put in front of the owners.
The changes that restore viability — to costs, structure, financing or operations — agreed with the owners and carried through to completion.
The same discipline we use to create value in the businesses we own.
GDP creates value by solving the difficult problems in the assets it buys in crisis. The division applies the same methods, and the same people, to businesses outside the group.
The group runs this work continuously inside its own portfolio: companies stabilised, stalled construction completed, debt restructured, trading operations rebuilt. The division brings the same team and the same methods to businesses outside the group, and what it learns feeds back into the group's own operations.
An engagement starts with a diagnosis at a fixed fee: an accurate account of the position and the realistic options, with the fee independent of what we recommend. If the position cannot be recovered on terms the owners would accept, the diagnosis says so. Where the owners decide to act, we take a defined mandate to deliver the changes, with scope, duration and outcome agreed in advance.
The division is part of GDP, an investment group, and in some situations GDP may have an interest in acquiring a business the division works with. Clients are told this from the outset. The diagnosis is prepared for the client alone, and nothing in an engagement obliges a sale.
