Whether you prefer "Distressed", "Recovery", "Troubled Asset" or "Turnaround" investors, the importance of those who finance restructurings cannot be ignored. We may indeed be in the midst of a prolonged recovery; however the world in 2010 is a much different place than pre-crisis. Change is happening and those who finance this change will continue to play a valuable role in the global economy.
