Succession Pathways

Whether you’re planning an exit, transitioning ownership to family, or exploring options to empower employees, choosing the right succession strategy is critical. We provide clear, commercially focused advice along the following pathways:

• Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs) – Offer a flexible and tax-advantaged way to transition ownership to your employees while preserving the ethos and independence of your business. (Learn more →)
• Management Buyouts / Buy-ins (MBOs / MBIs) – Empowering your management team through an MBO or bringing in new leadership via an MBI can secure the continuity and culture of your business.
• Trusts and Holding Structures – Trusts and holding companies can provide long-term asset protection and flexibility in succession planning.
• Generational Transfers – Transferring ownership to the next generation can raise complex personal, legal, and tax considerations — but it also provides a powerful way to preserve wealth within the family for the long term.
• Trade Sales – Selling to a strategic buyer can maximise value and create long-term growth opportunities.
• Third Party Sales (Private Buyers or Investors) – Third-party sales can maximise value, provide immediate liquidity, and bring in new expertise to help the business grow beyond its current stage.
