Duff Meyercord, partner of Carl Marks Advisory Group, will serve as the featured "CEO" panelist during a day-long seminar as the 2008 ABI Investment Banking Committee presents the Complex Financial Restructuring Program, September 4-5, in Las Vegas.

The program offers a unique approach to understanding the role of investment bankers and financial advisors in insolvency and restructuring. A case study will be presented to dramatize the various perspectives of parties-in-interest as they examine strategic alternatives and seek the highest value for a troubled company. Industry leaders will play the role of the major constituents as they work through the case study.

As CEO, Meyercord will lead a team of professionals of the hypothetical CThru Holdings Inc., through the restructuring process, from the situation analysis to the solution.

Meyercord has more than 30 years of experience directing and providing operational advisory services to distressed companies. His expertise includes turnarounds, restructurings, M&A advisory, lender communications, due diligence, valuations and interim management over a wide range of industries.
