Retirement Succession
Company transfer in retirement
When retirement approaches and there is no internal successor, a solution is needed that respects people, client relationships and the life’s work behind the business. Region focus: Southern Germany with a focus on Bavaria (Bavarian Oberland / Pfaffenwinkel, Munich and surrounding regions).
Typical situations
Common starting points include:
- Long-established, owner-operated business
- No family/internal successor
- Need for a reliable transition
- Protecting employees and clients
Possible solutions
Depending on the situation, the following models can be considered:
- Step-by-step handover
- Full transfer with transition period
- Instalment or annuity-like structures (where appropriate)
- Long-term continuation
Confidentiality
Discretion is standard. A first contact is confidential and non-binding.
