The Merchant Bank of Sri Lanka PLC (MBSL) will hold a seminar on 'Three perspectives of managing business' at the Cinnamon Lakeside on Tuesday, November 6 from 4.00-6.30 pm. "Restructuring is a corporate term used to include re-organising the legal, ownership, operational or other strategies/processes of the organisation for the purpose of profitability or to suit the present requirements.

It is a time consuming tedious task which should be properly assessed and implemented, since a lapse in the process could lead to a long term impact on the company", a spokesman said.

Management Consultant and Trainer, Vice Chairman, Employers' Federation of Ceylon and Senior Deputy President, National Chamber of Commerce of Sri Lanka, Sunil G Wijesinha will speak on this topic.

"Developing a suitable capital product will be the success element of an institution.

This could range from a basic share to a convertible debt issue or even a complex hybrid structure" he said. Deputy General Manager, Corporate Advisory and Capital Markets, Merchant Bank, A M A Cader, will also speak on this topic.

Manager, Portfolio and investment, Merchant Bank, Hemendra Wijekoon.Managing investment will speak on the broad concept based on the principles of risk and returns. Investments vary from equity investments to debt-related investments. Switching one's investments between equity and debt or even with financial instruments could provide extraordinary returns compared to general returns of the market.
