Mergers and acquisitions are seen as an effective way of expanding business but their success depends on making the right decisions at the right time. If you are thinking about running your own business, buying an established business is often an easier option.
Statistics reveal that only 25% of companies pass to a 2nd generation and only 2.5% have a 3rd generation senior management team. The most likely conclusion is for a business to be sold! For many owners the sale of the business will be uncharted territory; having never sold a business before, it’s hard to know exactly what to expect. Making the right decision is crucial as the sale may hold the key to a comfortable future and a final return on years of hard work and sacrifice.
