We acted as legal advisor to Precious Woods, a global leader in certified and sustainable tropical forest management, on its financial restructuring.   After having entered into a Standstill Agreement, and as part of the restructuring plan implemented after extensive negotiations with the involved stakeholders, the creditors of the holding company agreed to convert loans in the principal amount of CHF 43.5m into equity and to waive their 2024 interests in accordance with the Debt Restructuring Agreement.
