The in most cases optimal form of company!
It turns out that in the family companies tend to lose existing innovation force, if they are successful and grow. Within this growth emerging bureaucracy and nepotism must be countered.
Family companies provide flexible and tax efficient transfer of assets to the next generation. In family businesses, the asset of the testator is bundled and usually transmitted alive - wholly or partially - without the difficulties it may encounter with a group of heirs. Larger assets, particularly real estate and shares, can usually be transferred efficiently and tax optimized to the next generation by a family company.
We structure family companies, so that future heirs involved early into responsibility. We reserve the founder’s rights of various kinds (if desired), develop long notice periods, create clear business rules and manage restrictions concerning the succession and compensation in case of resignation. In addition, we ensure that of all personal and corporate tax allowances, tax advantages and valuation discounts can be taken advantage of.
The family-owned companies designed by us, permanently secure the existence of the enterprise or assets. They enable the supply of the transferor while creating anticipated inheritance in an optimal manner.
We prefer the GmbH & Co. KG (limited partnership business entity) as the optimal family society, but alternatives are possible!
