Business Succession Tax Planning

It is never too early to think about business succession planning. BCF’s experts help clients avoid the numerous pitfalls inherent in a merger, acquisition, estate freeze, or transfer of a family business.

Our team both optimises the taxes involved in the transfer of our clients’ companies and implements estate planning that takes into account family issues. We ensure that our clients‘ businesses are transferred smoothly and that their loved ones receive the desired result. To do so we draw upon a variety structures, be it a family trust, an estate freeze, the use of life insurance products, a management buy-out, or even a tax structure related to the practice of a profession.
