Relevant alternative

Law - UK - insolvency - restructuring plans (RP).

(RA).

In the context of a restructuring plan, a relevant alternative is a practicable alternative course of action to the restructuring plan.

Treasurers' contribution to presenting proposals

"A restructuring plan (RP)... is increasingly being used to turnaround ailing companies.

Its approval or rejection in court primarily hinges on whether the RP will return at least the same to creditors as the most likely relevant alternative, which would typically be administration and the sale of the trade and assets of the business.

Treasurers have the ability to present highly technical and complex information clearly and concisely and that is vital to secure creditor support and for the judge to clearly understand the benefits of the proposal."
