What is Business Succession Planning?
Business succession planning refers to a planned course of action that outlines the transfer of ownership of your business to another. The need for succession planning isn’t immediately obvious but is a smart step to take to secure the future of your family business from unpredictable life events. The succession planning process involves:
- Recording assets
- Declaring beneficiaries
- Appointing of an accountant to act on your behalf in the event of incapacitation
- Advice on the implications of changing ownership arrangements (e.g. beneficial to transfer sooner rather than later? which business structure to use?)
- Revision of any existing plans based on changes in circumstances or tax laws.
