Succession advisory

Company succession poses one of the greatest challenges to owner-managed enterprises. Early and careful planning of the economically viable transition of your business to the successive generation is the key to success. The related task of maintaining an established corporate culture requires especially careful analysis of this topic as well as competent succession advisory.
