Family Businesses
Our Family Business Unit , part of the BDO Centre for Family Business, is dedicated to serving the needs of family owned businesses. We understand better than most the unique challenges owners and managers face and, by working closely with them, have helped many to better balance the needs of the family with those of the business.
An essential ingredient in helping any family overcome and successfully manage business and family issues is communication. However, because of the dynamics of family business relationships, it may be more appropriate to turn to an independent, neutral adviser with expertise in the field who can promote open discussion among members of the family and guide them towards reaching consensus.
No two family businesses are the same - nor are the commercial or competitive pressures that affect them. For that reason, we tailor our approach to the specific needs of the family and the business involved in each assignment we undertake.
Our family business advisory services available include:
- strategic business planning and corporate finance
- specialist tax consultancy
- share valuation
- executive reward planning and employee remuneration
- Formalising a family constitution
- Improving communication
- Managing succession
