Cork Gully is a financial and operational restructuring advisory firm headquartered in London.[1] The firm specialises in business transformation, restructuring and special situations, such as the management of tail-end and/or challenged funds, as a sub-advisor or successor asset manager.[2]
The original firm Cork Gully was established as an insolvency practice, and became pre-eminent in its field from the 1960s to 1990s. In 1980, it merged with Coopers & Lybrand, later becoming part of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).[3] In 2010, the current management team bought the firm from PwC and established Cork Gully LLP, retaining the brand and its insolvency practices as an independent entity.[3]
