aboutus
​CTG is founded and managed by Rafael Sanchez. As a former VP of Commercial Banking of a national financial institution, he worked with businesses at the best of times and the worst of times. And all too often, he witnessed struggling businesses that lacked the knowledge and guidance to navigate their circumstances successfully, but he found his hands were tied with how much he could help. So, after 20 years with the institution, he formed the California Turnaround Group to lead businesses back from financial challenges and into success.
​
As a former banker, Rafael understands the speed and precision required to turn a business around successfully and he knows how to communicate with your lenders to negotiate workout agreements to meet your urgent needs.
​
There is no one size fits all solution. Each client has a unique business model, culture and circumstances that have brought them to the current state and there is an equally unique set of solutions that will transform each company to propel them forward.
​
CTG is focused on enabling our clients to achieve their maximum potential at all times, even under the worst of circumstances. ​
​
Rafael's deep expertise in banking makes him a formidable negotiator on your behalf, whether it is re-negotiating credit facilities, handling special assets with banks or managing the day to day banking relationships.
CTG specializes in businesses that are family owned and closely held. Succession planning, estate planning, and growing a company into profitability that will sustain future generations are crucial to multi-generational success. Family businesses are major drivers of the global economy and we are equipped to help them succeed.
