Succession Planning

A key objective of a business is to provide an income stream for its principals. Many principals of businesses that are wholly or substantially controlled by the people operating the business also have the objective of realising the capital potential of the business and ensuring an orderly and successful succession occurs for the inevitable day when a principal departs the business.

Frequently that means that the principals need to identify the sources of funding necessary to achieve these objectives.

Granted, there are challenges associated with implementing the right procedures. Often, principals of business leave the issue of making departure plans in the "too hard" basket. Ignoring this issue can leave you exposed when the expected occurs unexpectedly.
