Succession Planning including Business Owners

The Trusts, Estates and Wealth Preservation Group at Dentons Rodyk has the experience and expertise to provide and implement simple or highly complex planning for our clients, to assure an orderly, complete transfer of wealth upon or prior to death. We provide tax and planning advice applicable to multiple jurisdictions, and we can encompass the needs of clients with assets, family members, other beneficiaries or both in many parts of the globe. When appropriate, we call on our other teams’ expertise, including those in corporate and real estate practices.

Today’s families are complex, and there has never been a greater need to determine not just that wealth passes from one generation to the next but also how best to transfer it. This can be even more important when a business is part of the mix.

We deal with many substantial, privately-owned businesses that have succeeded through multiple generations—and success through the next generation has its own unique set of challenges. We help clients plan for and implement this transition, while minimizing the family, control and tax issues that inevitably arise.

We at Dentons Rodyk assist our clients with all areas of business succession, including: business restructuring, the preparation of shareholders’ agreements, insurance planning and all related matters.

In this client alert, we will outline the key changes to the GIP’s criteria and comment how the more stringent criteria might affect high-net-worth individuals who are interested to migrate to Singapore under the GIP.
