It is a particularly crucial task for owners of family-run businesses, as succession planning is often one of the most important decisions in a company's history. At the same time, it has major repercussions for the families involved and, last but not least, for the assets as well.
In view of the far-reaching impact of succession arrangements, our clients place high demands on the partner who helps them to meet this challenge. Ideally, their partner will have the experience and the critical mass required to understand the environment in which family-run businesses operate and be capable of drawing up alternative solutions. This partner will also need to appreciate the special philosophy that is at the heart of every family business. It goes without saying that we at BHF-BANK, one of the largest family-owned private banks in Europe, understand this very well.
A company owner looking to arrange how his life's work is passed on to the next generation must find his own way and decide what is right for himself, his family and the company. At BHF-BANK, we have the expertise and the experience to evaluate the available options and open up alternative courses of action.
