To ensure that a business continues to thrive even after the founder's death and remains with the family, early and proactive planning for business succession is essential.
To make business succession as efficient as possible, there are various family, inheritance, corporate, and tax law instruments available. Business succession, especially in family-run companies, often involves emotional and social dimensions as well. Finding a suitable successor for business management is therefore a significant challenge.

Ingenuity, Courage & Perseverance.
Business succession may necessitate the establishment of a family or corporate foundation. Family conflicts can make simple inheritance less appealing, and inheritance communities often lack sufficient flexibility. Investors may also be considered as potential successors. Choosing the right legal form is crucial, not only for legal reasons but also for tax and financial considerations. Transfer agreements must provide legal certainty.
