In today’s challenging economic landscape, small business owners struggling with mounting debt often face a crucial decision: declaring bankruptcy or pursuing business debt restructuring. Each option offers a path to financial recovery, but the consequences, advantages, and long-term impacts vary widely. In this guide, we’ll break down both options, explore key considerations, and provide insight to help business owners make informed decisions in 2025 and beyond.
Bankruptcy is a legal process that allows individuals or businesses to discharge or repay debts under court protection. While it can offer immediate relief from creditors, it comes with long-lasting consequences.
Debt restructuring is a proactive alternative that involves renegotiating existing loan terms to make payments more manageable. At National Credit Partners, this is our specialty: we act as a neutral mediator to restructure, reduce, and rebuild debt obligations without resorting to court proceedings.
