Passing the Baton: Interactive Decision Tree Tool for Continuity Planning
October 20, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT
According Family Enterprise Foundation recent research report, called “Ready, Willing And Interested – or Not? Canadian Family Business Transition Intentions”, ownership of more than 60% of Family Enterprises will be changing hands within the next decade. That is the largest and most valuable transition of family business wealth in Canadian history. The best time to start a successful family continuity plan is NOW! If the current stewards are prepared to invest the time, energy, and money to develop governance systems for tomorrow's generations today, they stand a better chance of maximizing the successful outcome.
To help you navigate this challenging process, FEAs Danielle Saputo and Jeff Halpern, in collaboration with Family Enterprise Canada, have developed an interactive decision tree tool for FEAs and Families to chart their path to successfully passing the baton to the next generation, or explore reimagining and reinventing their family businesses from operating businesses to actively managed investment businesses and family offices.
In this webinar, we will explore the Decision Tree tool, dive deeper into some of the important decisions to be made and answer your questions on using this tool with your clients or family members. Prior to the webinar, we strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with the Decision Tree tool.
