Policy & Public Affairs
R3’s Policy & Public Affairs team ensures that the views, expertise and experience of our members are heard by government, regulators, parliamentarians and other key stakeholders.
By bringing together member insight from across the restructuring, insolvency and turnaround profession, we develop R3’s policy positions, respond to consultations, influence legislation and regulation, and champion the vital role our members play in supporting businesses, individuals and the wider economy.
