Corporate bankruptcies have evolved over the years as more distressed companies are using less of their array of weapons under bankruptcy to resuscitate themselves. Experts say the result is fewer bankruptcies that last three-to-four years and more distressed companies looking at other ways outside of bankruptcy to fix themselves. Join the Deal and its expert panels talk about the decline of the duration companies stay in bankruptcy and alternative strategies to rehab a company, such as standalone reorganizations, M&A or liquidations. We'll also take a look at some of the industries that may be more susceptible to bankruptcies in 2012.
