About

Catalyst Advisory provides Directors into companies which are being restructured or where an investment needs to be monitored and protected.

Our clients include corporations, restructuring advisory firms, local and international banks, hedge funds and private equity firms.

The firm was founded by leading restructuring professionals with local market experience in the Asia Pacific. Being aware of the geographic risk and key exposures faced by Directors of companies in these markets the firm has developed risk mitigation tools and procedures to protect Directors.

Our support is unparalleled. We operate a pro-active risk prevention program for each Director, assigning a dedicated monitoring team to implement our risk mitigation tools, which also includes on-call strategic communications and legal teams.

Catalyst Advisory provides a unique platform for the appointment of Directors specifically designed for distressed situations.
We ensure our Directors have the competencies required, both from an experience and sector expertise perspective to be transformational in an organisation.

BIOGRAPHY

Troy is the Founder and CEO of Catalyst Advisory.

Troy has led Global and Asia wide legal restructuring and special situations practices in magic circle and top US law firms. During his 18 years of advising in the Asia Pacific, he has been involved in most of the major restructurings in the region.

His experience covers the Asia Pacific, including Indonesia, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Vietnam, India, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, Philippines and Australia.

With his knowledge of the distressed market, Troy identified the significant benefits of Directors with strong sector experience. When these Directors were appointed into companies being restructured, they worked with the advisors and other stakeholders to achieve superior results for both the company and the investors.

Similarly, when a Director was appointed by a company to protect an investment, sector knowledge was essential.

Accordingly, Catalyst Advisory provides distressed companies with Directors who have outstanding sector experience, while also protecting and supporting the appointed Director.

Given Troy’s legal background and his understanding of the restructuring processes within local markets, Catalyst Advisory provides Directors with an unparalleled level of support and comfort through unique risk mitigation procedures during the tenure of a Board appointment.
