This talk takes an unconventional approach to the specific financial challenges faced by visual effects companies. The speaker, who has 17 years of experience as a banking executive and is currently active in the VFX sector, brings tools and criteria from credit analysis and banking risk management to the creative world.

The talk explores how a VFX company can address situations of excessive debt, common in an industry marked by long-term projects, deferred payments, and high investment in talent and technology, and what specific levers exist to restructure that debt in a viable way: negotiation with creditors, refinancing, debt forgiveness, payment deferrals, and strategic relationships with banks.

A unique perspective that bridges two seemingly distant worlds, offering managers and producers in the audiovisual sector a practical and immediately applicable vision.
