Ownership Planning

The transfer of ownership is often complex, involving multi-jurisdictional legal and tax considerations. Too often, however, it is driven primarily by tax optimisation. Successful transitions start elsewhere: with a clear ownership strategy. This requires defining objectives, priorities, and roles with shareholders at the centre.

We work with current and future generations to bring structure and clarity to ownership planning. Our role is to help families articulate their intentions and make informed decisions.

Planning and coordinating ownership transitions

We support families through the full ownership planning process, including:

  • Preparing the next generation, including coaching for future ownership roles and transitions
  • Clarifying long-term objectives, both financial and non-financial, including topics such as stewardship, impact, and philanthropy 
  • Evaluating alternative structures, governance models, and estate planning options 
  • Designing governance mechanisms, including foundations, trusts, and other ownership vehicles 
  • Coordinating implementation, working alongside legal, tax and investment advisers
