Advising the Family Business - Wealth Management for Success

Introduction

There are unique dynamics of family businesses, which makes them different from non-family businesses. Family firms face complex issues that affect not only the destiny of the business itself, but also that of the proprietor, their families and their employees.

This virtual classroom session addresses how the business proprietor reconciles his/her own and their families’ aspirations with the commercial goals of the business, and its long-term sustainability, recognising that if you look after the business, the business will look after the family through generations.
