In his role at FTI Consulting, Mr. Deryckere will focus on financial restructuring advisory and Chief Restructuring Officer (“CRO”) services. His arrival further diversifies FTI Consulting’s service offering in the Belgian market, following the appointment of Business Transformation expert Jean-Michel Mollo in 2023.

Thomas is highly regarded and has a wealth of experience advising on large restructurings in the Belgian market.”
Mr. Deryckere joins FTI Consulting with nearly 20 years of experience advising companies, creditors and other stakeholders on a broad range of formal and informal financial and operational debt advisory matters, including independent business reviews, liquidity plans, distressed M&A and financial advisory. He has led a variety of large restructurings in the Belgian market across a variety of sectors. Before joining FTI Consulting, Mr. Deryckere was at PwC, where he led the Restructuring team in Belgium.
Mr. Mollo, a Senior Managing Director in the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment in Belgium, said, “Thomas is an impressive restructuring practitioner, and his appointment is great news for our practice in Belgium and our clients. His skillset is complementary to mine, and I look forward to working with him to strengthen the support that we give to stressed and distressed businesses.”
Commenting on his appointment, Mr. Deryckere said, “FTI Consulting has a stellar global reputation for its restructuring and debt advisory services. This, coupled with the opportunity to play a key role in building and broadening the firm’s capabilities in my home market, particularly appealed to me. I look forward to the new and exciting challenges that lie ahead as we work to realise this goal.”
