What is Small Business Restructuring?
The Basics
The Small Business Restructure Process (SBRP) is a
government-legislated option for small businesses in
Australia that are struggling with cash flow.
Simply put, the business owners appoint a Small
Business Restructuring Practitioner to develop a
restructuring plan that is approved the ATO and other
creditors.
The plan involves a reduction in debt and other
measures so you can get your business back on track,
stay in control and keep trading.
