Mr. Wall has advised on engagements across a broad range of industries, institutions and sectors. Most recently, he served as the sole named liquidator for a multi-award-winning technology platform in the Gulf Corporation Council (GCC), with a presence in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and the United Arab Emirates. He led a significant team through a multi-jurisdictional insolvency that alleviated key stakeholder concerns and maximized returns to creditors.

Mr. Wall also coordinated and led the successful carve-out of cash flow positive components within an international bank's insolvent debt factoring institution for an effective sale, facilitating future revenues and full payment of the previously insolvent position. He provided operational wind down and corporate strategy programs to numerous sovereign wealth funds, fortune 500 companies, investment banks, private equity firms and major family groups in the GCC region.

Prior to joining A&M, Mr. Wall built, developed and led the Restructuring department of a global professional services firm in the UAE.
