Business owners face a unique set of challenges when it comes to wealth management. In many cases, the owner’s personal liquidity is often substantially less than economic net worth. As such, succession, retirement, tax and estate planning decisions are more complicated. Moreover, multi-generational businesses may lack leadership consensus at transition and force sub-optimal outcomes. As advisors experienced in handling a wide variety of these situations, we with you to define your goals and develop a financial plan to achieve them.
Relax. This is your process. You're probably here because you have arrived at a crossroads. The answer you are looking for is not so obvious and you need some advice. Perhaps a term sheet arrived on your desk and the numbers look interesting. Suppose your children aren't interested in joining the company after college. Maybe your largest competitor was closed down for tax fraud. You need someone to help you sort out the implications and find the right course of action.
