Deep dives

The Likelihood of a Distressed Cycle

Several indicators suggest that a distressed cycle may be on the horizon, including increased inflation, high interest rates, stock market declines, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, declining corporate revenues, and softening deal volume. Factors such as companies facing maturities or liquidity crunches and an uptick in liability management transactions further reinforce the possibility of a distressed cycle in the near future.
