Education, Training & Coaching
Manewitz Weiker firmly believes that a team educated in workouts and restructurings will be instrumental in facing the financial challenges ahead for fund and portfolio managers.
In today’s fast moving and volatile economic climate, it is imperative that investment professionals understand the restructuring process, methodologies, and strategies from a business perspective. Our training component is generated from our desire to assist firms in the education and development of their investment professionals. We design and customize training programs geared toward the needs and expertise of the participants. We recognize that in this field especially, experience matters. With the number of companies experiencing stress, developing workout skills and credit acumen can make a difference to the bottom line of our clients.
