In a new report, Supporting productivity, transformation and business rescue in a post-pandemic world, we highlight the huge contribution IFT members make and the value they create for society and the economy.
We estimate that in 2022, IFT members and partners saved 81,800 jobs as initiatives to fix finances and revamp growth strategies bore fruit. Members also helped UK companies deliver more than £3.6bn of shareholder value.
Alongside this data, the report analyses the key stresses for businesses and showcases case studies for successful turnarounds, demonstrating the skill of members and partners, and the impact for business and people.

This report seeks to underline the importance of early engagement with accredited turnaround professionals to UK plc in what is expected to be a particularly challenging period.
