Distressed Investment Banking Review

The book covers the basics of evaluating and investing in a distressed company. This is such a vast area that it is difficult for any book to cover everything in great detail. However, I thought the authors covered most of the topics needed to get started in this field.

The Definitive Guide to Distressed Investment Banking

I found Kaufman and Owsley's book to be more relevant today than ever particularly because it provides an insider's view on the methods and complexities of restructuring troubled companies. Distressed Investment Banking is a practical guide that provides a financial roadmap of what to expect and how to successfully navigate the waters of distress and insolvency to maximize recovery. The authors create a thoughtful and relevant text by presenting real world experiences through a lens of rich knowledge and common sense. Often accompanied by amusing observations, the authors have crafted a "must read" in a complex arena in one of the most relevant areas of investment banking today.

Kudos to Kaufman and Owsley

This is the definitive work on distressed investment banking by the two acknowledged leaders in the field. Eminently readable, this book provides depth and breadth in a neat, easy-to-follow package. If you're an investment banker, lender, attorney or business person interested in the world of insolvency, this is the book to read.
