Description
This presentation will explore the latest trends in ownership transition and help firms avoid common pitfalls that can derail efforts to achieve a successful transition—including waiting too long to develop a plan and selecting the wrong candidates for ownership and overvaluing the firm. The panelists will illustrate creative ways in which senior owners may further enhance the value of the transition process using appropriate succession mechanisms, including internal transitions, ESOPs, Mergers & Acquisitions, or a combination of these strategies.
