Directors duties In this session of the Bootcamp series, we will be presenting to delegates on the topic of directors’ duties in corporate restructuring scenarios. This session will cover the range of situations in which delegates will need to consider the important subject of directors’ duties when working in their day-to-day roles, including when acting in an advisory capacity in relation to a distressed company (e.g. when assisting the board or the company itself) and also the many ways in which directors’ duties are relevant throughout a formal restructuring appointment.

“The R3 Restructuring Boot Camp was incredibly beneficial for me, as I recently moved from Australia and with a number of years of restructuring experience - in the Australian market. The Bootcamp helped me apply my experience to the UK market and will help with my transition.”
“Great overview of key restructuring elements which served as a really helpful refresher for someone who has been out of restructuring for a couple of years.”
“Really enjoyed the course as a knowledge refresher and build-on. The sessions are always well set up, with a presentation/learning section at the beginning, followed by interactive case examples which were considered in smaller breakout rooms. A good way to learn/refresh on topics without feeling self-conscious about getting the answers incorrect.”
“I liked that it is a virtual course and I can continue to access the resources for some months after.”
