When Cannabis Investments Go Up in Smoke: Resolute Brings Strategy to Chaos

The cannabis industry has drawn billions in capital—but it’s also riddled with volatility, regulatory ambiguity, and financial distress. From overextended MSOs to single-state operators in turmoil, the cracks are widening. For stakeholders like lenders, fund managers, and attorneys, the key question is no longer “What happened?”—it’s “How do we recover?”

That’s where Resolute steps in.

  • Rapid expansion outpacing revenue
  • Delays in licensing and compliance
  • Weak internal controls and unreliable reporting
