A solvent restructuring solution that focusses on identifying and eliminating legal entities that are surplus to requirement.
Navigating Complexity
Legal Entity Rationalisation (LER) is often also known as Legal Entity Simplification, Legal Entity Reduction or Corporate Simplification – please visit our Resource Hub for more information.
Years of corporate expansion, M&A activity and creative tax, legal and operational structuring has left many organisations with group structures comprising hundreds (in some cases thousands) of legal entities. Over half of FTSE 100 companies have corporate structures with over 250 legal entities.
As well as the added cost and wasted resources spent maintaining large group structures, every one of these legal entities, whether trading, holding, special purpose or completely dormant, now attracts a level of scrutiny like never before and most carry external filing and/ or reporting obligations for their owners. Time and money spent meeting these reporting obligations is not value-add and eliminating surplus legal entities allows your people to spend more of their time on value-add activities, whilst delivering cost savings and improving operational efficiency.
