Fiduciary Services: Independent Leadership to Protect and Recover Value
At Pivot, we serve as trusted fiduciaries in complex restructurings, bankruptcies, and wind-downs—brought in when there’s a need to protect value, ensure compliance, and deliver results under pressure.
Whether we’re managing assets or executing a confirmed plan, we bring the independence and discipline needed to drive recovery, maintain transparency, and get the job done cost-effectively. In these situations, we’re called on to serve in a range of fiduciary roles—each designed to protect assets, ensure accountability, and deliver outcomes that align with the interests of all stakeholders.
Chief Restructuring Officer (CRO)
We serve as an embedded corporate officer to help guide companies and existing management teams through the chapter 11 process, in order to provide leadership to the process and a liability shield for existing D&Os.
Chapter 11 Trustee
When control and trust are critical, we take the reins to ensure transparency, enforce compliance, and safeguard value—always with a clear eye toward recovery.
Examiner
We conduct impartial, in-depth investigations that clarify the facts, uncover risks, and support informed decision-making on complex issues like misconduct or plan feasibility.
Receiver
We take swift, responsible control of assets to prevent loss, preserve enterprise value, and execute a process that’s both court-compliant and recovery-driven.
Plan Administrator
We carry out confirmed plans with precision—managing distributions, tracking compliance, and maintaining rigorous documentation to protect all parties and minimize exposure.
