Course Description

The succession or exit by a business owner is usually the single largest financial transaction in their lifetime with a lot at risk as typically a majority of an owner’s net worth is tied up in their company (normally greater than 70%). Accordingly, an owner needs to prepare and begin two to five years prior as business value enhancements, tax planning, market timing, and the sale or transition process all need to be strategically mapped out, implemented, and aligned.

When it comes time for a business owner to transition or sell their business, taxes tend to be one of the most important negotiating points. In many cases, recent tax legislation has increased the value of businesses through favorable credits and deductions and reduced tax rates.

Yet, with reports of abusive tax shelters constantly in the press, many taxpayers and their advisors are increasingly wary of even the most fundamental tax planning strategies. Despite this, solid tax planning remains an essential component of building personal wealth and preserving multigenerational longevity.

In this online CPE webinar, we will review the various options available for pre and post-sale exit planning.

Learning Objectives

To discuss the benefits of planning before the sale.
To analyze what to consider “after the milk has spilled”.
To explore one powerful technique that few advisors even consider.
To inspect various options available for pre and post-sale exit planning.

This was a field I was more involved in about 20 years ago. Topics were covered which were new to me. This is valuable information.

I thoroughly benefitted from this presentation. But once again I was confronted with the harsh reality that the upper Middle Class have ways to protect their retirement monies, whereas the mid to lower middle class do not. We need a webinar that deals with those who have small businesses and not larger either C or S corporations.
