Client Offboarding - Capital Resolution for a Wholesale BankGlobal Business Wind-down and Divestment
Whether it is due to regulatory drivers, shifting business strategies or profitability/revenue opportunities, there are many reasons a wholesale bank might decide to restructure its business, products and geographic client footprint.
