As a business owner or advisor to a business owner, you strategize the company's value creation, growth plans, even its eventual transition. But what happens if a "triggering event" forces ownership transition prematurely, i.e., disability, death, divorce, disagreement. What are the vital issues that need to be addressed including stock transfer, loss of financial resources/talent, loss of key employees and customers, operational management, among others? Do these issues differ between sole owned and multiple owned businesses? Outdated or insufficient business continuity solutions will not offer owners the security they desire - which could put their entire operation at risk.

Learning Objectives:

• Discover the importance of a Buy Sell Agreement and "must have" provisions. 
• Increase value by decreasing the company's reliance on the owner for operations.
• Understand unique planning characteristics of a "sole owner" scenario.
• Funding alternatives for Death and Disability and significant tax implication of design/structure.
