How we can help you with pre, during and post-business sale. Are you ready to take the plunge?
Get StartedApproaching a business sale is an exciting but nerve-racking time. On the one hand, you are excited to commence the next chapter of your life, yet simultaneously you are anxiously wondering if you are selling the business for the right price, in order to be able to achieve all the things you want to do for the rest of your life, or until your next venture.
Our chartered financial advisers specialise in helping people like you exit their business. This is how we can help:
It shouldn’t be all about the value of your business, it’s about how much capital you require to live the life you deserve. Your destination is, in fact, the correct place to start. We’ll work with you to discover what you aspire to have from your post-sale life. From maintaining a comfortable daily lifestyle to luxury holidays, and gifting and expensive purchases.
Once we understand where you’re heading, we’ll do the sums to calculate how much is enough to cover your life following the sale of your business. We can give you the confidence you need to be able to say yes to the right price for your business, without the anxiety and worry of it not being sufficient. This means you won’t be waiting around for a better price and can spend your precious time doing what you love.
Advanced FutureMapping technology enables us to create a bespoke financial roadmap for you. This maps all your future life events, ambitions and life goals, along with your incomings and outgoings, predicting any anticipated market changes; to measure your future financial situation. This tests how robust your financial plan is against challenging life questions and possible scenarios.
Fundamentally, your money should work as hard as you had to work to make it. Your financial advisor will design a bespoke investment strategy to meet your personal, financial goals and to achieve optimal returns.
This will guarantee that the revenue from your business sale continues to grow and beat inflation which will, in turn, fuel your future and goals. The best part of this is that you won’t have to lift a single finger as we’ll take care of the monitoring and rebalancing of your portfolio.An experienced in-house team and our esteemed investment consultant; Tim Hale, regularly monitor and enhance the investment portfolios and over this last decade our clients’ investment portfolios have achieved significantly ‘above inflation’ returns:
