You can select a liquidation path only if the collateral composition and document set comply with regulations. Aim to complete the process within six months of submitting the plan, but prioritize restructuring or sale based on business viability. Promptly completing the recovery and processing procedures around three months of delinquency is key to increasing the recovery rate.
1. Selection Criteria by Restructuring Method
To summarize, we choose restructuring if business viability can be restored, voluntary sale if monetization is advantageous, and auction or public sale if immediate recovery is required. Restructuring is advantageous when the likelihood of debt recovery is increased through the injection of new capital or changes in repayment terms. For a voluntary sale, marketability assessments and profit/loss scenarios based on the sale period must be reviewed first. An auction is initiated when delinquency is prolonged or the debtor is unable to recover their financial capacity. Amortization is considered as a final option when recovery remains uncertain even through auction or public sale. Business feasibility, collateral validity, and market conditionsIt is important to judge them simultaneously.
| method | When to use it | Key points |
|---|---|---|
| Restructuring | When expecting improved business viability | Detailed plans are needed for new funding, repayment deferral, collateral reassessment, etc. |
| voluntary sale | When marketability can be secured | Flexible adjustment of sale terms and management of sale timing are important |
| Auctions and public sales | In case of priority for recovery or long-term delinquency | Review initiation around 3 months of delinquency, verify resale regulations |
| Depreciation | When recovery is expected to be impossible | Documents supporting the recovery and the possibility of a voluntary auction must be stated. |
2. Collateral Composition and Document Consistency Check
The key is to assess the validity of a set of collateral rather than a single piece of collateral. Collateral validity is secured only when trusts (Title Trust, Management Trust), mortgages, account pledges, pledges of bonds or insurance proceeds, and equity pledges are used together without conflict. In terms of documentation, definitions, triggers, and priority regulations must align to minimize practical disputes. It is essential to verify whether registration and enforceability requirements have been met, and for collateral pledges such as stock pledges, consistency with the Commercial Act must also be examined. If there are discrepancies in the documents, the validity of the collateral itself is weakened.
| Types of collateral | Verification points | Practical Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| trust | Whether trust type and trustee authority match | Review of Separation of Beneficiary Rights in Managed Land Trusts |
| mortgage | The amount of the debt matches the entry in the registry. | Check priority rules when setting a lower priority. |
| Pledge of accounts and receivables | Clarification of account control and recovery procedures | Confirm the scope of coverage for pledges on insurance proceeds and construction payments. |
| Pledge of shares | Contract provisions such as restrictions on the exercise of voting rights | Review of potential conflicts with Commercial Act provisions |
3. Restructuring Process Stages and Required Documents
The basic approach for restructuring involves organizing and submitting a phased plan and financial scenarios. Initially, grounds for reclassification are established through a business feasibility assessment and cash flow recalculation. Subsequently, a detailed repayment plan and new funding requirements are presented to the creditor group and financial institutions. Since Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) guidelines recommend finalizing the plan within six months of submission, please set your schedule in six-month increments. The submitted documents must include a business feasibility assessment report, a collateral status table, a funding plan, and a set of legal supporting documents. Including market assumptions and stress scenarios at the time of submission increases persuasiveness..
How does the auction process proceed?
Generally, the review for initiating an auction begins when a debt is overdue for three months. Since the order of execution in legal proceedings varies based on creditor priority and registration status, the recovery probability for each type of collateral must be calculated first. It is common for the structure to allow for a resale within one month if the initial auction fails to secure a winning bid. To predict the actual recovery rate, one must understand the differences between voluntary and compulsory auctions and estimate the associated costs and timelines. In practice, voluntary sales are frequently conducted in parallel prior to the auction, depending on the recovery scenario. In auctions, it is advantageous to consider both speed and cost simultaneously when making a decision.
When should depreciation be considered?
Amortization is the final step considered when all recovery attempts, including auctions and public sales, fail or the probability of recovery is extremely low. Before making an amortization decision, details such as voluntary auctions, execution procedures, and potential sale values must be documented to enable responses to internal and external audits. The timing of accounting amortization reflection and its tax implications must also be reviewed to minimize unnecessary disputes during future loss recognition procedures. Given government-level trends in resolving project financing (PF), variables related to regional project sites significantly impact recovery scenarios. If the recovery rate forecast falls below 20%, we will seriously consider amortization.
6. Voluntary Sale Operation Checklist
In an autonomous sale, market timing and marketing strategy determine the recovery amount. First, assess the feasibility of the sale and the expected sale price band, and set a break-even point when switching the sale method. To minimize disputes, the sale conditions must clearly specify the method of balance payment, the scope of the handover, and the collateral release procedures. In practice, it is common to set the sale period within a range of 3 to 12 months and establish an interim reporting system. Resolving all legal risks associated with the collateral prior to the sale significantly increases the final recovery amount. Flexibility of sale termsSecuring it determines success or failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
In what order does real estate PF restructuring proceed?
First, after ensuring the consistency of collateral and documents, the matter is resolved through restructuring, voluntary sale, auction/public sale, or amortization based on the results of the business feasibility assessment.
When are restructuring, voluntary sale, auction, and amortization selected respectively?
We consider restructuring as the final option if business viability can be restored, voluntary sale if monetization is advantageous, auction or public sale if immediate recovery is required or if there is long-term delinquency, and amortization if recovery is uncertain.
What specifically should I check during the collateral and document inspection?
For collateral, you must verify the validity and priority alignment of the collateral set, such as trusts, mortgages, and pledges; for documents, you must confirm the fulfillment of definitions, triggers, and priority regulations, as well as registration and enforceability requirements.
What is the schedule and required documents for submitting the restructuring plan?
The Financial Supervisory Service recommends that the matter be settled within six months of the plan submission, and the submitted documents must include a business feasibility assessment, a collateral status table, a plan for capital injection, and a set of related legal documents. It also promptly reviews the recovery and processing procedures around three months of delinquency.
