For business owners, it’s never too early to plan for succession. Selling a business successfully can be a significant life event. In addition to the sense of achievement this brings, realising value built up over years of hard work can provide them with the means to pursue other cherished business and personal goals. However, in our experience, that value can be eroded significantly if the business doesn’t have a proper succession plan in place.

At this event, our specialist Corporate Finance and Tax teams will give you insight and advice on:

• Properly preparing for the future of your business
• Understanding your valuation and maximising the value that you have built up
• Reducing unexpected tax liabilities
• Efficiently structuring your business’s affairs in readiness for a new owner.

 

In addition to this, our experts will touch on some of the various succession options available, including management buyouts (MBOs), employee ownership trusts (EOTs), sales to third parties and employee share incentive schemes, to help you with considering the best options that fit your business model.
